**Call-out **

Killaloe Coast Guard unit were tasked to an injured walker on the walking trail leading up to the top of Moylussa Co Clare.

At 14:45hrs Sunday afternoon the team responded with 4x4s and the unit's All terrain vehicle.

Within minutes of receiving the call the ATV was on the track from Ballycuggran to Moylussa where road conditions were challenging in parts, once the vehicles could go no further the crew walked the final stretch to where the causality was lying.

The causality was been cared for by other walker's who done a fantastic job keeping the person warm and comfortable until help arrived.
An assessment was carried out by Coast Guard members and the causality was kept comfortable until the arrival of National Ambulance service Paramedics.

The person was treated at the scene for a lower leg injury by Paramedics and then a Coast Guard team carried the causality by stretcher down the track to the waiting Ambulance.

We wish the person a speedy recovery.
