A brief alert last night when a concerned family member phoned the police after a period of time with no communication from a group climbing Scafell Pike. Happily, shortly after the initial call, the police confirmed contact had been made and the group were safe and well. The lack of reliable mobile phone signal accounted for the delay in communications.
Incident started at 03:27 and ended at 03:51 making 0.4 hrs in total. There were 2 Wasdale team members involved. Total rescuer hours: 0.8
