A man walking across Kinder aggravated a previous injury and was having difficulty continuing. A passing walker came to his aid and attempted to help him get down from the top of the hill. After three hours of struggling on one of the hottest days of the year, they had managed to get as far as the top of William Clough, where they decided it would be too difficult to descend and requested our help. Three Kinder parties were dispatched to assist and with the help of some pain relief, the man was stretchered down to a waiting ambulance. The team would like to thank the passing walker for his efforts in getting the man as far as he did.
