We were called to assist multiple Lakes teams to search for a male overdue from a walk from Seathwaite to Scafell. Team members were tasked to search the Rosset Ghyll and Esk Hause region. He was ultimately located in Piers Ghyll, with serious injuries
A young woman phoned for help when overwhelmed by weather at Esk Hause. Very poor phone signal meant information was scant so we set off equipped for most eventualities. She was located uninjured at the bottom of Rossett Ghyll having been assisted down by two other people

Ask yourself three questions
Do I know what the weather will do?
Do I have the right equipment?
Do I have the skills?
We were requested to search a number of locations to assist Wasdale MRT with a search for two overdue people. They were ultimately located cold and wet by members of Duddon & Furness MRT in the Upper Esk area
A solo male was unable to continue his descent after a knee injury acquired ealier became too painful for him to continue. An early start ensued for the team, with backup coming form Kendal MRT. He was treated by team members and then evacuated by stretcher. It was VERY windy.
A 17-year-old male sustained a lower leg injury when he slipped on wet grass at the bottom of Rossett Ghyll. He was treated by team members and evacuated to the road-head for onward transfer to hospital.
