We were called to locate two female walkers who were lost in the dark and believed to be in the Kinder Reservoir area. Their location was identified using the PhoneFind technology which uses the GPS within a smartphone to send us their grid reference.
Two hill parties were despatched to their location where they were found safe but very cold. They were taken down to our vehicles at the filter house and transported to Bowden Bridge where relatives were waiting.
