We were called at 21:47 following a broken 999 call from two uninjured walkers lost somewhere near the Pennine Way on Kinder Scout. Following an exchange of text messages and then phone calls we were able to get a fix on their location using SARLOC, which obtained GPS coordinates from their phone. We were then able to locate the two lost walkers and safely escort them off the hill to Edale Cross, from where they were driven down to our base in Hayfield and then back to their accommodation in Edale.
