Stood Down Time: 2:00 pm
Team / Agency: Keswick MRT
Full dogs / Local Dogs: Local
Search Dogs Involved: Rona
Call Out Details:
A couple reported themselves stuck on very steep ground above Johnny Wood. The Team deployed but could not locate them in the area where they were supposed to be. The search then moved south, and they were eventually located by screams coming from an area of "steep" ground ending up at a dry stone wall.
Call Out Conclusion:
The ground was not in fact that difficult, but obviously appeared so to the casualty. The couple were assisted down to a lower path, and given advice about navigation.
