Avalanche Search and Rescue expert Caroline Elliott shares some of her life-saving missions in the mountains.
She was the first British woman to join the French Fire and Rescue Specialist Mountain Unit as a dog handler, with retriever Fjord by her side, and the first to qualify in all disciplines for the elite French ski patrol.
Every second counts when saving lives – teamwork and communication are key. Caroline translates valuable lessons learned in often harsh, hostile mountain conditions to corporate and everyday life.
