A woman was rescued after suffering a fall on the Sugar Loaf Mountain yesterday.
Emergency services including the Longtown Mountain Rescue Team were called to the incident at just after 3pm.
While out doing an organised group walk, a lady had slipped on the approach to the summit, resulting in head, chest and wrist injuries.
A spokesperson said: "The group were well prepared for the weather conditions, giving initial first aid and shelter, however with the low cloud and rain everyone was fast getting cold. The team were quickly mobilised and on scene, with team medics giving treatment and pain relief to the lady."
The casualty was evacuated via stretcher and a rope system down to the main car park by the rescue team and taken to hospital by ambulance.
