The team was alerted by Cumbria Police by a walker who had reported a fellow walker that had hurt their leg and was struggling to descend the tricky path down from Beck Head to Gavel Neese. The team was mobilised but fortunately the walker had managed to make it down to the valley floor where we met up. A lift in the team vehicle back to Wasdale Head was gratefully received, to minimise any further discomfort.
Incident started at 16:55 and ended at 19:36 making 2.7 hrs in total. There were 16 Wasdale team members involved. Total rescuer hours: 43
