A call was received yesterday evening about a party of 12 walkers who were overdue from a walk up Scafell Pike. A friend was expecting them several hours earlier, returning to Keswick from Seathwaite.
However, as the Team Leader was gathering information form the informant on the phone, a message was received from one of the party saying that they had got lost, but had re-found their route and were safe and well. The log was closed later when it was confirmed that they were safely off the fell.
