Instructions
Paul    took    a    last,    lingering    look    at    the    magnificent    mountains    the  northernmost    shore    of    Scotland.    It    had    been    a    good    mornings    climb.    Now    it    was    time    to    head    back    to    the    car,    parked    on    a    track    five    miles    away.    He    consulted    his    guidebook    and    chose    a    route    which    would    take    him    down    an    old    watercourse    carved    into    the  mountainside.    It    was    steep    but    seemed    to    no    problem    for    a    dedicated    mountain    walker    like    himself.    He    started    down    the    gully    but    it    soon    became    much    steeper    and    he    realised    there    was    no    way    he    could    continue    down.    He    a    rock    with    his    left    hand    and    began    to    climb    back    up.    Immediately    the    ground    .  He    dropped    straight    down,    hit    the    slope    and    rolled    over    and    over.    Then    he    blacked    our.    He    came    came  round    some    time    later    to    find    himself    curled    up    with    his    rucksack    on    his    back,    trapped    on    a    shelf.    Trying    to    move,    he    gasped    at    the    pain    in    his    shoulder    and    chest.    But    fifteen    years    as    a    scout    leader    had    taught    him    to    cope    with    crises    in    remote    country    and    he    calmly    analysed    his    situation.
