The fourth and last call of the day was received from Northwest Ambulance Service. They had a report of a vehicle hanging over an embankment with a significant drop, with a location of Hardknott Pass.
When an exact location was obtained from a separate police call, it was confirmed that this was in Duddon And Furness MRT’s area and so a quick handover call was made. However, the very welcome news was received almost immediately afterwards to say that all persons were safe and well and the teams stood down.
Incident started at 23:05 and ended at 23:30 making 0.4 hrs in total. There were 2 Wasdale team members involved and the incident occured at NY237015. Total rescuer hours: 0.8
