Snake bite/Fall Highlands

Whangie, Kilpatrick Hills / Campsie Glen

Mountain rescue teams responded to an incident at the Whangie in the Kilpatrick Hills following reports of a walker feeling unwell after a suspected venomous snake bite. Later that day, team members were diverted from this callout to assist with a multi-agency response involving another person who had fallen in Campsie Glen.

Outcome: Casualty evacuated to ambulance; second incident involved a fall.

Support the team who responded. They turn out unpaid, in all weather — every team is a volunteer-run charity.
