A walker has been airlifted to hospital following a 'complex and technical' rescue. Rescuers were called to Buachaille Etive Mor in Glencoe following reports that a person had suffered injuries near the top of the mountain.
Two teams of volunteers located the casualty who was stuck around 800m up the hill. Rescuers moved the walker to allow for a 'casualty carer' to be lowered from a waiting helicopter to assess the injuries.
They were deemed to have 'minor injuries' and were airlifted to hospital for further assessment. Images from the scene show Mountain Rescue teams working in pitch-black conditions as they secured the hiker using ropes.
