A request was received from the Duddon and Furness Team Leader to assist with the rescue of a fallen climber at Wallowbarrow crag in the Duddon. A small number attended and assisted with the evacuation. Sadly the climber did not survive. Our thoughts are with his family and friends, and with the Duddon and Furness team, NWAS, Helimed, and the police, all of whom were involved.
Incident started at 12:30 and ended at 16:20 making 3.8 hrs in total. There were 5 Wasdale team members involved and the incident occured at SD 223 968. Total rescuer hours: 19
