The team were contacted by North Yorkshire Police after a walker reported herself lost and requesting advice, having set out to walk Pen-y-ghent. Despite a poor signal, the police control staff were able to get a location for the caller before losing the call.

A small team were dispatched to locate the walker, and as they approached the reported position, they came across her, with a companion, making their way towards Hull Pot. They were none the worse for their experience, and were escorted back to their car at Horton in Ribblesdale.

Volunteer time: 15 hours
