We were called by a couple who had become disoriented on the lower slopes of Kinder Scout as night fell. We were able to locate them through our Sarcall PhoneFind system. Two landrovers and a hill party were dispatched. There was a short walk off the hill and a ride down the track in our Landrover back to their car in Hayfield.
