A group of four descending the Band spotted a light, apparently signalling for help across the valley on Mart Crag Moor. They noted their position and a bearing to the light, convinced themselves that it was a signal for help and not just another person descending after a long day, and phoned for help. They were interviewed by the team, and the position of the light was calculated. A group was dispatched, and after a short search found a lone male walker trying to find his way off Mart Crag Moor.
