RE: The joys of winter walking – and the risks
Rather safe than sorry hey, sometimes people do risky things and then put the lives of rescuers at risk!
You're brave walking in winter @natubat!

I pick my winter walks very carefully! And yes, the things that those brave rescue guys have to go through sometimes are astonishing. They do it because they love it, but they don't want to end up injured or worse. Although having said that, the 55-year-old man who fell from a cornice and tragically died was close friends with some of the guys in the local mountain rescue team and had probably trained with them. Even the most experienced people can make an unfortunate mistake.
