The team was called by Derbyshire Police on Saturday 4th July following reports of a lone walker who had become stranded on steep ground after leaving a footpath. Although uninjured, she was unable to continue safely.
A limited team response was deployed due to the nature of the incident and the walker's proximity to a nearby road.
Team members located the walker on challenging terrain and escorted her safely back to the road. The team were stood down.
