A call was received from Cumbria Police, about a lone walker that had failed to return to her accommodation. She had left on foot and taken the shuttle bus down to Wasdale Head at 10am. A local team member was tasked to see if she had missed the last bus and then was walking out of the valley, but nothing was seen. With little other information to start to plan a response, news was gratefully received that the walker had turned up safe and well at her accommodation, and the alert was closed.
Incident started at 22:10 and ended at 23:44 making 1.6 hrs in total. There were 2 Wasdale team members involved. Total rescuer hours: 3.2
