Very dramatic footage of a winch rescue by Inverness Coastguard helicopter yesterday (Saturday).

Very serious situation for the two guys. The MRT tried to reach them but were beaten back by condx. Very deep snow and blizzards. Air crew got to them in the morning. They were on one of Bidean nam Bian's ridges.
