Members of South Eastern Mountain Rescue had a busy weekend responding to call-outs in the region.
On Saturday morning a call was received just after half past nine concerning a fallen walker on the Knockmealdowns.
The walker had suffered a pelvic injury and head laceration. A full team call out was issued before 10am.
Shortly after 12.30pm, the casualty had been evacuated by stretcher to a Land Rover for transfer to a waiting ambulance at the trail head.

After the team returned to base, they received a request from An Garda Siochana to assist with a lost walker just after 6.30pm near Mount Melleray. The walker was found safe and well as the team prepared to leave.
Meanwhile, SEMRA responded to a call in the Blackstairs yesterday (Sunday) when a walker with a group fell and suffered a leg injury.
Team members assisted until Rescue 117 arrived which transferred the walker to hospital.
