Banishead 13th September 2015 17:14hrs 48/2015

The day had turned warm, sunny and dry with very little wind.

The Team was asked to go to the assistance of a lone female walker. Following her descent of the Old Man of Coniston, she took the wrong track and became disorientated amongst the high bracken on Banishead Moor . 

We were able to determine her position via the Mountain Rescue SARLOC system, and since she was going to be easy and quick to locate, only one land rover left the base with three members. She was soon found safe and well and driven back to the base.

A total of 7 Members responded to this incident which took just under 1 hour.
