Grey Crag 10th June 2013 16:44hrs (18/2013)

The weather was dry, sunny and warm. There was a light wind.

We were called to the assistance of a gentleman who had become very fatigued. He was with a party of eight walkers who were doing a circular walk in Coppermines Valley. Unfortunately the walk was a little more demanding than expected and the casualty got as far as Grey Crag before being unable to go any further.

Due to reasonable access to the location, the team soon arrived and the gentleman was put onto the stretcher and taken to the waiting landrover. He was unhurt and recovered well, so an ambulance was not required. He was driven back to his car in Coniston and we returned to base.

8 members attended this callout which took 1 1/2 hours.
