After her injuries were treated The Best we could in The Situation , she was ready to winch. All the while the lad was with his mum talking to her. "
'Brave lad'The Woman was airlifted to hospital at about 23:00 while the Mountain rescue team helped the rest of The Family off the Mountain .
The Mountain rescue spokesman added: "This was a superb effort by all the Oban MRT team members and Rescue 199 in dealing with a technical rescue on steep ground in The Dark . It was challenging to access, difficult medically and a challenging lift for the helicopter. "

"Just getting to his mum was hard, then looking after his mother in an extreme situation, talking to The Police and keeping Calm - he was amazing," the spokesman added.
