A woman in a party of two suffered a suspected sprained ankle which led them to make very slow progress. They called for help and we were able to meet them and drive them the final kilometre or so of the hill
Team members returning from the previous incident encountered a woman who had slipped on ice and sustained a suspected ankle fracture. We assisted her with treatment and evacuation to her vehicle for transport to hospital
A male sustained a nasty ankle fracture when he slipped on an icy path. He was treated by the team and evacuated to an air ambulance for transport to hospital
With many of our team away training in Scotland, we were particularly grateful for Kendal MRT assistance
A group of three women became separated when they encountered deep snow. One of them ultimately made it back to the valley bottom alone and was located there. The other two were located and extracted via Coastguard Helicopter from Caernarfon and transported to Ambleside where they were reunited with their third party member and rewarmed and checked by paramedics before heading home
Sub-zero conditions and deep, fresh snow made for quite challenging conditions for all

We were alerted by Wasdale MRT about concern for an overdue male. He turned up safe while investigations were being carried out
Flashing lights were reported by campsite staff (something they’re familiar with, but these gave them cause for concern)
Investigation revealed a photographer on the crag unaware of the alarm his actions were causing. False alarm with good intent
A fellrunner slipped on snow v=covered ground sustaining a fracture/dislocation of the ankle. He was treated by the team and evacuated to a waiting NWAS ambulance
An 11-year-old female suffered a lower leg injury. She was treated and evacuated in very icy conditions
We were requested assist with an unconscious casualty in Stock Ghyll. While the team were assembling we were notified that NWAS had extracted the casualty and were no longer required
We were requested to assist a woman with family members who had got stranded on Red Bank due ice. The team were busy with the previous incident so while they waited they were assisted by passersby and we were no longer required
A male sustained a nasty cut to his leg. He was treated and evacuated to their own transport for travel to hospital
