Incident 104 @ 13:37 on the 28/07/2021
The team was called out today by North Wales police to a female at the summit of Yr Wyddfa. She had been struck by lightning and was falling in and out of consciousness , with blood down one side of the face.
The team was called to our base at Nant Peris, and a request for the assistance of the Coast Guard rescue helicopter was made. Some members were deployed on foot and by train, where others were flown up by Rescue 936 to Clogwyn station. At the Summit two females were treated for the effects of a lightning strike. One with minor injuries and the other more serious. Both were evacuated back down the mountain to Clogwyn station by the team, where they were flown to Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor by Rescue 936.
