We’ve got a search where?

Posted by Aled under: Callout; Mountain Rescue; sean .

As I was on my way into work this morning, the pager went off. An uncommon call - this was an area search call - I can only remember two of these, the area call system is usually used to alert us of a casualty with a known location, however it can be used in extreme circumstances to ask for assistance from any teams with an urgent search. This one was for a missing motorcyclist, and the RV was here. Now I have to admit, looking at that map, I don’t recognise the area, so zooming out we see this. That’s right, folks, I could have been sat having breakfast with Sean in an hour or three.

Fortunately, the missing motorcyclist was found quickly and we were stood down. Another wonderful day at work instead then.
