Rescue team plans extension after outgrowing base
One of Scotland's busiest mountain rescue teams is trying to raise £100,000 towards the cost of extending its base.
Glencoe Mountain Rescue Team's centre was opened in 1999.
An important part of the extension is a new garage to accommodate the team's vehicles, also trailers, quad bikes and a boat.
Glencoe MRT said its transport was currently packed closely together inside the centre, and vehicles had to be "shuffled around" to get them out in an emergency.
The planned new garage would better fit longer modern vans.
The extension would also create space for more than 50 rescuers to gather for briefings during large-scale call-outs.
The team is raising money through a crowdfunding campaign.
Last year, the volunteers were called out to more than 90 rescues.
The incidents included the recovery of the bodies of three climbers who died Aonach Eagach Ridge in Glen Coe in August.
