DUNDONNELL
MOUNTAIN RESCUE TEAM
I
have been an active member of Dundonnell Mountain Rescue
Team since 2000 and this page portrays some of the activities
of the team.
Operating
in the rugged and remote mountainous areas of Ross-shire
and part of Inverness-shire, the team is available to help
anyone in difficulty on the hills, mountains or crags. Team
members are based in a number of locations in the Northern
Highlands to help provide cover across an area spanning
more than 2,500 square miles.
