| Subject: Four 'absolute idiots' rescued from Ben Nevis in an 80mph blizzard while wearing TRAINERS Tue Feb 11, 2020 4:20 pm | |
| A 'bunch of idiots' who decided to climb Ben Nevis in trainers and without a map during Storm Ciara are 'lucky to be alive' after mountain rescuers saved the group from hypothermia and 80mph winds.
The quartet, described as 'stupid' by Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team, got caught on steep and icy ground on Coire Eòghainn near the 4,413ft-high summit as a -20C blizzard stormed around them.
Poorly-equipped - without ice axes, crampons, or maps on them - and separated from each other, discerning mountain rescuers called the suspected Glasgow-based students 'lucky to be alive'.
They used mobile phone app what3words to flag their location, before 22 fearless volunteers rushed to their aid and performed a long rescue operation in the midst of a ferocious lightning storm.
