We were called by Police about 2 walkers who reported themselves lost in the ground between Caw Fell & Haycock. As they had camping gear they waited in their tent for a couple of hours to see if the weather improved then headed out West down easier ground. They were later met by a team member out on a walk and escorted back to their car.
Incident started at 10:49 and ended at 18:45 making 7.9 hrs in total. Incident occured at NY 127 096 (altitude 403 m).
