We were called by Police about a walker who reported himself lost somewhere towards the top of Scafell. The team leader provided directions over the phone to first find the top again, then descend down the relatively safe slopes to the West and back to Wasdale.
Incident started at 16:17 and ended at 20:00 making 3.7 hrs in total.
