What happens to walkers who drop out part way through a hike?
• Life gets really boring as its no fun sitting in a cold minibus waiting for everyone else to finish! In the event of having to retire part way through a hike • we will escort the walker to a safe rendevous where they will be handed over to leaders of the back up team who will arrange appropriate action eg deal with the injury, provide TLC, let them map read for the minibus driver etc. • Providing that the teams progress will not be impaired, and depending on which stretch of the moor is to be covered, it may be possible for the walker to rejoin their team later in the day or to start with them on the second day.
