Two walkers rescued at Ingleborough
Two walkers were rescued at Ingleborough on Saturday night.
A 40-year-old woman was reported by a fellow walker to be unable to walk further, having nearly completed the Three Peaks Challenge.
A Cave Rescue Organisation (CRO) vehicle with two team members went to the location, given as Sulber Nick crossroads, and found the walker to be tired and with extremely painful knees.
