Description

Ten Tors competition support through my Army Reserve Unit. Wild camp out on a tor to man a check point.
Horrendous weather - torrential rain which ultimately cancelled the competition. This lead to me being tasked with leading approx. 200 personnel off of the tor and down to the closest road. The teams had been stopped at my Tor the previous night, and their campsite subsequently flooded from the rising river level. Most of the night was spent moving teams and their equipment.
