During callout 6, five inexperienced walkers were reported overdue by their friend after setting off for an impromptu walk up Scafell and Scafell Pike from Upper Eskdale.

Most team members deployed for the ongoing callout in Wasdale were asked to hold for possible redeployment and additional team members were also asked for their availability. However, shortly after this another call was received, confirming that the party had just returned safe and well to a local hostelry, so the log was closed.

Incident started at 20:07 and ended at 20:47 making 0.7 hrs in total. There were 7 Wasdale team members involved and the incident occured at NY 21793 02265. Total rescuer hours: 4.9
