00:00This is Eryry, a breathtaking part of North Wales that draws visitors in their millions.

00:08But this wild landscape can also hold dangers.

00:14And when things go wrong, the busiest network of rescue agencies in the country must come together.

00:23We found this female.

00:26Saving lives.

00:28I like it down there.

00:30In a landscape like no other.

00:34That's a proper job there.

00:50Eryry's spectacular scenery is no secret.

00:54But there's another hidden world here too.

01:00One that lies below the surface.

01:04That is amazing.

01:06Caves and mines, they're incredibly exciting places to go off and explore.

01:14It's a long way isn't it?

01:16There's abseil ropes.

01:18Cable bridges.

01:20Oh my god, they're wiggled.

01:22All sorts of obstacles.

01:24But these are not maintained.

01:28It's not an adventure park.

01:30If something does go wrong.

01:32Oh my god.

01:33That looks horrendous.

01:34You can't phone from underground.

01:36You can't communicate.

01:38So you're going to be there for quite some time before help can come.

01:42It's late September.

01:52I think we're going to have a whole lot of fun today.

01:54I have always been interested in the mountains and trying to get really good experiences with my children.

02:02Doing something like that is really wholesome and it just builds so many skills.

02:06Really started to enjoy doing the more outdoor stuff with my mum.

02:10Learning all that comes with it.

02:12Experienced climber Kate has brought her 15-year-old son Dragan and his friend Josh to explore one of Aruri's abandoned mines.

02:22Just got interesting.

02:26Come on Dragan.

02:28I love the fact that we could be walking on ground and there's some other world underneath.

02:35It's like gold.

02:42They've chosen an established route between two mines that runs through a complex network of tunnels.

02:50Taking explorers in on one side of the mountain and bringing them out on the other.

02:56It's several kilometres long and up to 130 metres deep in places.

03:02With zip lines, rope bridges and even a boat.

03:09Here comes Josh coming down our second abseil.

03:13We did think, oh yeah this is going to be good.

03:15Then whilst we got in there we were like, oh this is really good.

03:19A via Ferrata underground, I've got to love it.

03:22It's a really cool place.

03:24This might be my place already.

03:28Around three hours into the route.

03:30Nice.

03:31They reach an underground lake.

03:3450 metres wide and up to 60 metres deep.

03:38There's only one way across the ice cold water.

03:42There was just a rope that was hanging in the water.

03:45So me and Josh started pulling this rope and there was a canoe on the end of this rope.

03:50It was just insane.

03:53One by one they need to abseil down into the canoe and pull themselves to the other side of the lake.

04:00I can see you actually.

04:05This is like the most insane thing.

04:08I went across first just because I always like to make sure that it is safe.

04:13And then Josh was safe as well.

04:15But on Dragan's turn, there's a problem.

04:19I just stood on the wrong spot.

04:22Just sunk.

04:28Your waist deep.

04:33I was panicking.

04:35I was struggling to climb back out.

04:37All the rock was crumbling off the wall because it's all slate.

04:42The boat just went under.

04:44I was in the water for probably a minute.

04:47Breezing cold.

04:48I started crying.

04:49It was just not happening.

04:52Dragan manages to pull himself out of the water onto a rock.

04:57Dragan is too heavy to get on the boat, which is very old and sinking.

05:01He can't get across this water and he's stuck on the other side.

05:08On a second attempt, the boat sinks again, meaning Kate has no way to get back to Dragan.

05:14The best she can do is put his survival bag in the canoe and send it over to him.

05:19The most important thing was get Dragan into some warm clothes.

05:22He was at risk of hypothermia and the worry and the concern around that was massive.

05:30It was at that point that I knew that I needed to go and get help.

05:33But they're deep below ground with no mobile phone signal.

05:40Kate decides to get help.

05:42So she leaves the boys together and returns to the surface alone.

05:48That was one of the most difficult decisions I probably have made, I would say, in my lifetime.

05:55I knew how scary that was going to be for them.

05:59Kate has managed to get out there.

06:03At the moment, me and Dragan are stuck here for, we don't know how long yet.

06:09Dragan?

06:12You still okay, yeah?

06:18We've been in there for quite a while.

06:21Just Kate still hasn't come back.

06:24Around two and a half hours after leaving the boys, Kate reaches the surface.

06:30I've got help.

06:32When I saw the light, yeah, there was a huge element of relief.

06:40PHONE RINGS

06:43Who's emergency?

06:44I've gone down to an underground quarry and my son takes a boat

06:50and basically the whole thing's just sunk.

06:54She's so scared. He's 15.

06:57I'm so worried that he's going to get hypothermia.

07:00I've left both boys and they're down there on their own.

07:10For now, there's nothing more she can do.

07:13I'm worried about you. I'm worried about both of you.

07:16Massively worried.

07:18North Wales Police deploy specialist volunteers from Cave Rescue.

07:26It's looking like he's been submerged in the boat light.

07:29We had about 17 team members.

07:32We had a stretcher, we had boats, we had ropes.

07:35They also call in help from Aberglaslyn Mountain Rescue

07:40to get the team and all their equipment on site.

07:44Can you lot go then?

07:45Yep.

07:46We are now sitting at one end of the access.

07:49Our other team is at the other end of the access.

07:52We are going to do logistical support

07:53whilst Cave Rescue are going in to get them.

08:08Three of us went into the mine initially,

08:10with the rest of the team coming up behind us.

08:13We made our way towards the lake,

08:16but searching in some of the other areas.

08:22Did you think you heard something then?

08:27Hello, hello?

08:32It's not here.

08:34Hello?

08:36It's now been four hours since Kate left the boys,

08:40and the team are worried they might panic

08:43and try to find their own way out,

08:45making the search even harder.

08:47Like...

08:49Just the whole thing has gone...

08:52My main worry, once we'd been under there for quite a decent time,

08:57I sort of got the idea in my head that Kate had tried so hard to get out

09:01that she could have fallen,

09:04and then nobody knows that she's there.

09:07That point started worrying me a lot.

09:11I am freezing my feet.

09:13I can't feel my feet anymore.

09:15The whole time I was down there, I didn't stop shivering.

09:18It's the scariest thing that's ever happened to me in my life.

09:21Ever.

09:23Hello?

09:24Hello?

09:26Hello?

09:29Oh.

09:30Hello?

09:34It's Cave Rescue.

09:35You all right?

09:41Just stay where you are.

09:42There you are.

09:48Yeah!

09:49It's cold!

09:53When I heard their voices, the relief that I just felt,

09:56I was like, oh, my God.

09:58How are you doing?

10:00It's cold.

10:02That is one cold, like.

10:05It is, yeah.

10:07So relieved.

10:08All of the stress that was built up just went.

10:10And he went to you in five minutes.

10:13He gave me a flask full of hot chocolate.

10:16Gave me some warm clothes.

10:18You may find it's probably easier to climb up sideways on

10:22with one foot going in from each side.

10:24He got me across.

10:25And Josh was just sitting there in like a survival bag,

10:28all wrapped up.

10:30Hello?

10:31Hello.

10:33We have an update, Steve.

10:35Yeah, we've got the two lads.

10:36The rest of the guys are on the way out with Kit.

10:37Oh, good stuff.

10:38We went into a cave at like 11 o'clock.

10:41And we got out at like nine.

10:43This is the best of all outcomes, eh?

10:47That's really cool.

10:48Yeah, it is, yeah.

10:49Thank you very much, guys.

10:52I was also quite embarrassed.

10:54All these people going through the trouble just to get us to...

10:57Right, where's my mum?

11:00I think she's on the other side.

11:02I was so proud, you know, so proud of both of them.

11:07Thank you so much for coming out and helping and getting them back so I really appreciate it.

11:11You look at people getting rescued and you always think, like, yeah, it happens, but it won't happen to me until it does.

11:18These are amazingly adventurous places to go off and explore, but they are hazardous environments.

11:25We've gone a lot worse, so I think we got very lucky on this occasion and thanks for everyone turning up. You did a great job.

11:29I remember just having this huge weight off.

11:35Like, okay, it's over.

11:45No two jobs are the same, but one thing is constant.

11:49Errories rescuers are always up for the challenge.

11:53You can come across any sort of landscape.

11:55If it's in the woods, if it's up on a hillside or a climbing crag, we will try our best to get there.

12:03But the terrain here can be deceptive.

12:07And casualties don't have to be at the top of a mountain to be out of reach.

12:11PHONE RINGS

12:19Please emergency.

12:20On a walk by my south, I'm pulling into the bog.

12:24I've had to go into spasm.

12:26Gone up to my waist.

12:28Having pain.

12:29A walker is stranded in a bog just north of Porthmatog, near the shore of Llyn Cymmer Stradlyn, half a mile from the nearest road.

12:48North Wales Police dispatched the team from nearby Aberglaslyn Mountain Rescue.

12:59I'm not that familiar with this area. It says bog, but you know, you're usually in some sort of boggy marshland.

13:06When we got to base, our team leader Drew had wellies, and you're like, oh, he doesn't often bring wellies. What does he know that we don't know?

13:15So when we got up to Porthmatog, we drove the vehicles on the track, which runs around the outside of the valley.

13:23We knew where the casualty was. We had a good location for them.

13:26Just to the left of the rocks on the dark green, he's really hard to make out.

13:30He's black. He's wearing black.

13:31He's black with a little face.

13:33And I can just see his face above it. Yeah, he's right, our left.

13:36The casualty is no more than 600 metres away. It should be a straightforward job.

13:42A lakeside walk, not that long. If you look on the map, it's flat. It's got a footpath that goes all the way round.

13:48But he's on the wrong side of a very wet marsh.

14:02Be careful on the ground, guys. Massive divots and quite boggy.

14:07I don't think I kind of could have predicted just how hard that ground was to cross, especially with Kit on our backs.

14:15The bog. The bog. The bog of doom.

14:21It is really, really hard work.

14:27Every fourth or fifth step, you're disappearing into boggy, marshy ground.

14:32Are you even pulling?

14:36Strong, young, physical person.

14:38Think, I can take on a bog. It's fine. We walk through bogs all the time.

14:42It's easier to carry it than push it.

14:45Until you actually get into this bog.

14:52He's down. Are you all right, Drew?

14:55My wellies are wet.

14:57After about 60, 70 metres, everything was just a battle.

15:01We're literally in the wettest patch of it.

15:04You know, I'm six foot.

15:07And I was four foot in bog for some of that rescue.

15:17Eventually, the team make it across the boggy ground and to the waiting casualty.

15:23We knew he had had a slipped disc and had quite a lot of back surgery.

15:34And I think he'd just been given the go-ahead by his doctors to go out again and explore in the outdoors a little bit.

15:40So, a bit rough for him.

15:43Accuation move at the moment.

15:44Stand by, yeah?

15:45Are you okay there?

15:47Yeah, yeah.

15:48Right, so let's do brief in and paracetamol.

15:50You've got to reassess how you're actually going to get the person out.

15:54Because we don't want to be carrying this guy with a bad back in a stretcher.

15:58It's going to be wobbling around and jerking around.

16:01We're going to be falling over.

16:07Knowing how hard it was to get to the injured man,

16:11the team quickly decide their chances of getting him out on foot are small.

16:16Is it available?

16:17We're going to...

16:18He's got out at the minute, so fingers crossed.

16:19OK.

16:20And put in a request for the Coast Guard helicopter.

16:23And then just kind of roll over into it as gently as you can.

16:28Got it?

16:28You got it?

16:29Good lad.

16:30Go on.

16:30Good lad.

16:31Go on.

16:31Good lad.

16:32The cloud is rolling in, but we are some 600 metres in baseline.

16:41Is it coming?

16:42It's coming.

16:43Have you been in the helicopter before?

16:46Oh, mate.

16:46It takes the helicopter a matter of minutes to reach them from its base in Carnarvon.

16:57We tried to get the casualty on a stretcher and then tried to move them over that ground.

17:03We would have ended up calling the helicopter, but it might have been an hour, hour and a half later.

17:07He's previously had a slip disc and he's self-diagnosed himself with another slip disc

17:13and everything indicates that he's correct.

17:15It's always a relief when the helicopter's coming.

17:22And it's also just really cool when a helicopter is coming to you.

17:26At what point in life does a helicopter fly directly to you and land next to you?

17:32OK.

17:32You all right?

17:33Head on.

17:36Head on.

17:37Head on.

17:38Head on.

17:39Head on.

18:03helicopter will have to hover and winch the casualty up from where he is.

18:08Once they went into a hover, we all had to take a little bit of cover,

18:12so ducked down and got low.

18:18Grass is blowing everywhere, everyone's jacket is blowing everywhere.

18:23And Owen has the most magnificent beard.

18:27It's not like this piece of rubbish, this thing is, like, solid,

18:29but in the downdraft you can see it just jiggling.

18:33Two and a half hours after calling for help,

18:42the casualty is safely on his way to a spotty Gwynev in Bangor.

18:46Wild.

18:49936 couldn't come in.

18:51Almost certainly have had to get another team in, maybe two other teams.

18:55I really don't know if we'd have got him over that wall.

18:58I think we could have been there for three hours waiting for people

19:00and then at least another two or three to manhandle a stretcher to the vehicles.

19:05It is quite deep in place.

19:07That's the difference the helicopter makes.

19:09No such luck for the mountain rescue volunteers, though.

19:13They'll have to go back the way they came,

19:16and every bit as gracefully.

19:19Well, I think you're being filmed looking like true heroes here, gents.

19:23Leave it as you've found it. Leave no trace.

19:26Oh, no.

19:33Through thick and thin for Eryry's rescue teams, this landscape is a way of life.

19:39I've lived up here for the last 10 years now.

19:56There's nowhere else in the UK that I'd rather be.

19:58It is just beautiful.

20:00But when people need help in hard-to-reach places,

20:05it can take all their skills to get them out.

20:08I feel like there's no problem.

20:10There's no problem, but there's no risks.

20:20I'm going to this.

20:22We were walking at Berry Glen,

20:24and she's gone and tripped over the cliff edge

20:27and landed on loads of Jagatty rocks.

20:30How far did she fall?

20:33Very, very, very far.

20:3848-year-old mum Jodie has fallen 20 feet near Betus Akhoid.

20:44She's badly hurt,

20:46but is in a deep ravine at Force Anodhin,

20:49also known as Fairy Glen.

20:51The ambulance crew,

20:57a first on scene.

20:59O'odd i'r reit ger yr afon.

21:05Pwnnath ni gyrraedd y lleoliad,

21:09Mountain Rescue gael i allan o lleoedd hi.

21:14Paramedics call in o Gwen Valley Mountain Rescue to help.

21:21She's taken an unwitnessed fall,

21:27and the ambulance have specified a horizontal lift.

21:32This situation has the potential

21:34to be huge, catastrophic injuries.

21:38Mobile 2,

21:39we're just arriving on scene,

21:40so you can brief us as I've seen, have we?

21:44I'll send Paul and the crew down with medkit first,

21:49and we'll follow down with the ropes.

22:00The casualty, with the bottom of a set of steps,

22:03across approximately 10 metres,

22:05the bouldery ground.

22:08Jodie's in shock.

22:09The paramedics have given her pain relief,

22:12but they suspect she has serious injuries.

22:18Full, ydi gael,

22:20ma na risg awrach

22:21tori Kevin, tori Gwddw.

22:24Ambulance people,

22:26is there anything else you require

22:27from a medical perspective?

22:30Just, just the evacuation.

22:31I don't know if the adrenaline is going to happen,

22:35and there's a lot of injuries that are going to happen.

22:41So she's fallen from up there,

22:44down here, and I've got her, of course, here.

22:46It's the hip on this side,

22:48and obviously the pelvis there.

22:49She urgently needs a scan at hospital,

22:52but first, Mountain Rescue have to work out

22:55how to get her out of the gorge.

22:58Are you going down, Bruce?

22:59I'm going down.

23:00Could you just drag that down so we know it's 100 metres,

23:02the right leg?

23:03Okay.

23:05With a rope system set up,

23:09Sai does another assessment of Jodie's injuries

23:11to work out how they can safely move her.

23:15Where?

23:16No, go for it.

23:17Is that her eye, brother?

23:17Yeah, that's right, yeah.

23:19We need to get you from that to that.

23:22Yeah.

23:23It's a wheel zone, huh?

23:24What I don't want to do is for you to do anything

23:26and make anything worse.

23:27All right, can you just look up for me?

23:29Can you just look up for me?

23:31Ah!

23:31Yeah, okay.

23:32Say again, say again.

23:33Keep looking on the edge, look.

23:35Is it sore in there?

23:37Yeah.

23:37No.

23:38There?

23:38Ah!

23:38If someone has spinal or pelvic or hip fractures,

23:43the last thing on earth you want to really do is move them

23:47because you could make things worse.

23:50But Jodie can't sit on a boulder next to Fairy Glen

23:53for the rest of her life.

23:56So what we'll do,

23:57we're going to put you in a full immobilisation,

23:59which will just keep you nice and still

24:01until we scan you at hospital, all right?

24:04Yeah.

24:06There are two ways of doing this, okay?

24:08Either you try and move yourself

24:10or we lie you back

24:13and then we move you.

24:14I can't sway.

24:15Quick, would you move in there?

24:17Honestly.

24:20On three.

24:21One, two, three.

24:23No!

24:23I tried to move and as soon as I moved,

24:29the pain was really, really bad.

24:31There was pain in the middle of my spine

24:33and my right leg particularly was really, really painful

24:36in the groin area in my hip.

24:38Nice deep breaths.

24:44Slowly out.

24:46Nice deep breath in.

24:48Breathe in.

24:49Go on, breathe in.

24:51That's it.

24:53Doing great.

24:54That's exactly what we needed.

24:55Can I have just one second?

24:57Yeah.

24:57Yeah?

24:58Yeah?

24:59Go on, yeah.

25:00Push on it.

25:01Go on, go on.

25:02Oh, beautiful.

25:03Go away.

25:04Big deep breath.

25:05Big deep breath.

25:06She's done it.

25:14Now the team needs to ensure her injuries

25:17aren't made worse when they move her out of the gorge.

25:21OK, we're going to squeeze your pelvis slightly now.

25:24Off you go, Tim.

25:25Just make sure she's on it.

25:27Yeah.

25:27Deep breath.

25:28They fit what's called a pelvic binder

25:30tightly over her hips

25:32to reduce the risk of a serious internal bleed.

25:36What's really uncomfortable?

25:37That thing.

25:38That thing.

25:39OK, which is it touching in a particular place that's uncomfortable?

25:44Have a think of...

25:44At the bottom of my back.

25:45I'm going to trust you up like a turkey now, Jodie.

26:01With Jodie as comfortable as possible...

26:05Happy job?

26:06Yeah.

26:06It's time to get her out.

26:10There you go.

26:11Floating on air, you see?

26:13Nice and slow.

26:14The terrain was really challenging.

26:16You can't feel it, D.

26:17You can't feel it, D.

26:18The boulders meant that there was no flat footing.

26:22Take it on the road.

26:23They were wet and slippery.

26:25All stations, a little stations.

26:27This is a...

26:28Slowly, slow it down a bit.

26:30Slowly, slow it down a bit.

26:31Slowly, slow it down a bit.

26:33Step up right.

26:34Right through.

26:35Don't get through.

26:36OK, hang on, hang on.

26:37OK, hang on, hang on.

26:38How's speed?

26:39OK.

26:40Gynna chi yr allt i fynda chi ona hefyd.

26:43Feel the bulb as like.

26:44Yeah.

26:45OK.

26:49Yeah.

26:50So ni, no, e wedi gallu nido heb y tîm acheb.

27:18If you breathe, it's still chugging away.

27:20Excellent.

27:21OK.

27:25More than five hours since Jodie's fall,

27:28she's finally in the ambulance on her way to hospital.

27:36So I was in hospital for nine days.

27:40I found out that I'd fractured my pelvis on both sides

27:43and chipped my spine.

27:47Jodie was incredibly lucky.

27:49She had a really nasty fall with potentially life-changing implications.

27:55Oedden ni reit meist fo chi eip di brif o'n waith,

28:10Mountain Rescue's bread and butter is getting poorly broken people

28:15out of really tricky situations.
