We were called by Cumbria Police about two overdue walkers from a walk up Yewbarrow. A family member was concerned as it was several hours after they were expected back. The Team Leader was in the process of checking car parks and local hostelries, and gathering more information when the news came through that both walkers had turned up safe and well. The team was then stood down.
Incident started at 19:22 and ended at 20:04 making 0.7 hrs in total. There were 2 Wasdale team members involved. Total rescuer hours: 1.4
