Glyder Fawr, Cwm Idwal, Eryri

A woman from Derbyshire became stranded on Glyder Fawr in Cwm Idwal while attempting to retrieve her parrot, which had panicked and flown away after being chased by peregrine falcons. Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Team located her via her mobile phone and safely brought her and her parrot down from the steep, heavily vegetated terrain.

Outcome: casualty and parrot brought down safely to lower ground
