Blea Tarn

We recieved a call that a woman had sustained a lower leg inury near Blea Tarn, Langdale. The report came second hand from a man who had walked past the injured woman, seen her companions struggling to get a mobile phone signal and offered to go to the phone at Old Dungeon Ghyll to get help. When we arrived, it became apparent that the woman had been evacuated by her companions and this was later confirmed by North West Ambulance Service when they were caled to a local hotel to attend to the woman.

Team members assisted Police divers as they searched several tarns in connection with the previous days search.

The search was resumed with areas originally searched at night rechecked in daylight and new areas covered still without success.

A man was reported missing in the Blea Tarn area. A search was organised with assistance from seven SARDA dogs. He was located, unharmed just after midnight.
