At around 22h00 on Thursday night Emer-G-Med paramedics together with multiple emergency service agencies, responded to the Marlothi Chalets area for reports of a hiker stuck in the mountains.
The teams assembled and after a safety briefing began to assend towards the last known location of the two men.
The hikers were found just after 22h40. One of the men suffered a fractured lower limb and was treated and stabilized on scene before being packaged into a rescue basket and carried down to an awaiting Emer-G-Med ambulance, both men were taken to a nearby hospital for further care and assessment.
Thank you to all role players for their assistance on the scene.
