So, here we are again, some poor weather on the mountains
Yet many still willing to go out tramping the hills putting their own lives on the line and worse still risking the lives of Mountain Rescue Teams in danger too.
Walkers/climbers should be told Go At Your Own Risk, Get Into Trouble And We'll Come Get You In Springtime
Three deaths so far, one still missing . |

A few thoughts from me.
Yes, there are some proper idiots out there.
Quite often the press reports are not the full story, often sensationalism instead of fact, and we all know that outdoors small decisions can stack up to unintended consequences. I've been there and seen how vicious press and internet is until you explain, and suddenly you have folk apologising...
Finally, shit happens. Accidents in extreme weather can happen, and bless 'em, MRT turn out and do their finest.
(But I'll say it again, there's some fools out there)
Until I know details, preferably first hand, I refrain from judging these days. |

some are very experienced and very well equipped, you cannot equate for a trip or fall which leads to a fracture or worse |
