Specialist paramedics rescued a woman who had fallen and injured herself in a Harrogate woodland.
Two Hazardous Area Response Teams (HART) and a regular ambulance team attended reports of a fall at 11am just off Oak Beck Road, close to the retail park.
On arrival the paramedics secured the area and managed to get the patient out of the woods and into the ambulance.
The paramedics then took her to Harrogate District Hospital for treatment. It is unclear at this time what level of injuries the woman sustained.
A spokesperson for the Yorkshire Ambulance Service said:
The HART teams provide care to people in a hazardous environment that would otherwise be beyond the reach of NHS care.
