The Wasdale Mountain Rescue team were called out to two walkers who had lost their way whilst descending Scafell Pike. 

The team were called out on January 24 with the rescue lasting from 6.20pm until 8.58pm. 

A spokesperson from Wasdale Mountain Rescue said: "The team was called by Cumbria Police about two walkers who had lost the path on the descent from Scafell Pike in very misty conditions.

"Fortunately the Team Leader was able to successfully locate their position with Phonefind.

"A Limited Callout was made as initially the pair appeared to still be in difficulty, however, they then managed to cross Lingmell Gill and find the main path down to Wasdale. This avoided any team members being deployed on the fell on this occasion."
