We received a call via the Police from a man who was requesting help. He only seemed to know that he was in Cumbria. Questioning revealed that he was on Helvellyn. Further investigation revealed that his only problem was that he needed to contact his friend and had run out of credit on his mobile phone. It was suggested that he sort himself out. I understand a different expression was used, but I can't repeat that here.

A 29-year-old woman slipped while scrambling in Crinkle Ghyll, falling onto a ledge on her knees. She sustained a suspected fracture to her patella. Regular readers of our website and our Annual Report may be aware of how knees (and eyes!) make me queasy. If I was the character in The 39 Steps, then you could do (almost) what you wanted to my teeth, but I'd tell you anything, or do anything, if you threatened to mess with my knees or eyes! We were assisted by members of Kendal MRT.

A man in his 30s pulled a rock on to his foot, crushing it badly. He was rescue with assistance from Kendal MRT and a helicopter from RAF Boulmer.

Two men were reported as cragfast. We went to assist them, but further contact revealed that they were nearer the Patterdale side, so Patterdale MRT recovered them instead. With the benefit of hindsight, these two could probably have sorted themselves out, if they hadn’t had access to a mobile phone.

I doubt our victim really appreciated the trip down, but the weather has been great recently, not withstanding the previous callout, of course! It was a pleasant round trip.

Have you seen the time! And not an April fool. And full-on appalling weather! A young camper suffered a fit and an ambulance was called. When they realised how far from the road he probably was, they called us. We were on our way when we were alerted to the fact that the young man had recovered, and walked out to meet the ambulance crew. Our help was no longer required so we returned to our beds. It's an hour lost from my life that I'll never recover!

Fortunately his whistles were heard over the wind and he was found. He was escorted down to safety by members from both teams.

They insisted that only a helicopter would be able to rescue them ,but we new different. A search ensued and they were located by Search Dog Sky.

A 63-year-old man slipped and dislocated his ankle. His friends 'popped' it back in again and they continued to descend with the aid of trekking poles.
