Crib Goch, Pen-y-Pass

A medical emergency was reported on Crib Goch when a walker experienced a cardiac problem. Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team's response was delayed when two Mercedes parked illegally in a restricted zone at Pen-y-Pass blocked access to their vehicle; hikers physically moved one car to allow the rescue 4x4 through.

Outcome: rescue vehicle was able to proceed after hikers cleared the obstruction

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