The walker was reported to be in difficulty due to the injury.
Thirteen team members were able to locate the walker who was assisted to the roadside at Mullardoch dam.
The team had earlier been called out on Friday evening when two overseas’ visitors got into difficulties on one of the An Teallach Munros.
That prompted a heartfelt warning from the team who said that the duo had been “without the appropriate clothing, equipment, planning and - in particular - mountain experience”.
