We were called to a party of five walkers who were very cold, wet and had taken a wrong turn on their descent to Wasdale.
The Team Leader called the team out to meet up with them and direct back to safety. However, whilst team members were on the way, the party met up with other walkers who helped them onto a path and into Langdale. As such the Team Leader handed the callout over to our friends at Langdale Ambleside MRT, and they located the walkers and directed them back to the Langdale valley.
Incident started at 14:42 and ended at 17:01 making 2.3 hrs in total. There were 12 Wasdale team members involved and the incident occured at NY 236071. Total rescuer hours: 28
