Instructions
Last    year,    over    200    climbers    were    rescued    from    the    mountains    of    Scotland    by    local    teams,    who    go    out    in    all    weathers    whenever    disaster    strikes.    Many    of    these    people    are    volunteers,    giving    their    time    and    energy    freely    and,    on    putting    themselves    in    danger.    They    will    risk    life    and    limb  host  vitallimb  in    an    emergency    when    they    are    on    upon    to    rescue    foolhardy    or    unlucky    climbers.    A    whole    host    of    things    can    go    wrong    up    in    the    mountains,    from    sudden,    violent    storms    with    virtually    zero    visibility    to    unforeseen    accidents,    and    many    walkers    and    climbers    owe    a    huge      of    gratitude    to    the    rescue    teams!    While    rescue    teams    often    work    for    little    or    no    pay,    there    are    still    considerable    costs    in    maintaining    an    efficient    service.    Equipment    such    as    ropes    and    stretchers    is    of    vital  importance,    as    are    vehicles    and    radio    communications    devices.    Although    some    of    the    costs    are    borne    by    the    government,    the    rescue    teams    couldn't    operate    without    from    the    public.    Fortunately,    these    tend    to    be    very    generous.
