Mountain rescuers paid their third visit to the same area in five days to help a walker who had injured her leg.
The woman fell after slipping on tree roots while with her family near waterfalls in the Gwaun Hepste woods in the South of the Brecon Beacons national park.
Police alerted rescuers at 1.45pm today, Tuesday, after paramedics called for help to carry the injured woman from the site.
Members of the Central Beacons and the Brecon Mountain Rescue Teams were joined by colleagues from the Western Beacons Mountain Search and Rescue Team in the operation, south of Ystradfellte.
The walker was treated for a suspected broken ankle by the ambulance crew and mountain rescue teams before the rescuers stretchered her to a waiting air ambulance that had landed in the valley, which then flew her to Morriston in Swansea for further treatment.
Huw Jones, incident controller for Central Beacons MRT said: “It’s not a great area to perform a stretcher carry, as the ground can be broken and very slippery, which is why we train extensively in the area, but everyone in attendance did a fantastic job and stayed safe.”
The three teams had previously dealt with two injured gorge walkers in the area in two separate incidents on Friday and Sunday.
