Wasdale Mountain Rescue were called out when a walker was separated from her group on Scafell Pike.

On August 8 a call was received from a walker that had become separated from the rest of her walking party, and then lost the path on the summit plateau of Scafell Pike.

She was cold and wet and concerned for her safety with very poor visibility.

Wasdale Team Leader was able to confirm her location by Phonefind and then guide her towards the stretcher box at Mickledore.

Here she took shelter, whilst a small party of team members were dispatched to help.

Once on scene, the walker was reassured and rewarmed before being supported down the steep section of Mickledore gully.

From here steady progress was made in very wet conditions to Brackenclose where she was reunited with the rest of her walking party.
