We received a call from Cumbria Police regarding a concern for the safety of a walker who had reportedly traversed onto some difficult and steep terrain on Great Gable. As there was little detailed information and the walker could then not be contacted directly, a small team was called out to investigate further. Happily, soon after the callout was made, the walker made contact to confirm he had made it down safely into Ennerdale, and the team was stood down.
Incident started at 17:18 and ended at 19:21 making 2.1 hrs in total. There were 6 Wasdale team members involved and the incident occured at NY 209102. Total rescuer hours: 13
