Incident Management

Stob Dubh and Buachaille Etive Beag, from Stob Coire Raineach

Working again at the WHC UHI alongside Scott Kirkhope, with ATM 3 students, we set off to practically look at Incident Management. The students are studying Adventure Tourism Management, and will possibly be future paddling, climbing and walking instructors/leaders - so we were working on a management model that could be applied to other sports/activities.

We went to Stob Coire Rainearch on Buachaille Etive Beag, to get amongst the rain and strong winds. These conditions made communication difficult at times and tested their judgement and ability to make clear decisions in slightly testing conditions.

Well done everybody for working hard in the poor weather - and not complaining even when we asked them to discuss the scenarios with hail stinging their faces - nice.
