Hardknott Pass

The team was alerted by NWAS after an 18 year old female came off her bike descending Hardknott. With info a little sketchy and knowing a fall off a bike on Harknott isn’t much fun the team was called to base while further info was gathered.  After a call to the informant to gather further details it was apparent it was just a request from NWAS to assist the girl down the steep pass as the ambulance is unable to drive up.  Fortunately a passing van driver stopped to assist and the team was quickly stood down.

Incident started at 11:49 and ended at 12:29 making 0.7 hrs in total. There were 10 Wasdale team members involved and the incident occured at NY226015 (altitude 328 m). Total rescuer hours: 7
