Incident Details

Details	Description
109 Moel Faban, Bethesda 15 Nov 2019 02:30 5 hours 30 minutes 1 person Walking 5 members attended	A male teenager with little hill experience and no hill clothing decided to walk from Bethesda over to Dulyn Bothy using Google Maps and starting his walk at 8pm. The weather was poor and he had no idea of the terrain he was trying to negotiate, this resulted in him getting lost and struggling through wet, boggy ground above Bethesda. When he called for help he was only 15 mins from the road but felt unable to move by himself. Two team members located him, gave him warm clothes and hot drinks and then walked him back to Bethesda. At this point he had nowhere to stay so he was taken to Oggie Base for the night. On debrief it was discovered he was carrying a tent, sleeping bag, stove etc.
108 Cwm Llafar 9 Nov 2019 15:15 1 hours 15 minutes 4 people Scrambling 14 members attended	An experienced group of four became cragfast on the cliffs to the west of Crib Lem as they had thought this would be an easier scramble to the top than the Llech Ddu spur. However, the slush/ snow conditions proved more difficult the higher they climbed and it soon became apparent that a descent the same way would be dangerous. They called for help but initially comms were intermittent and very broken. Once it was established where they were the Coastguard Helicopter was requested due to the poor terrain and fading light. Luckily they were already out training so were diverted to the incident site, winched the group aboard and dropped them off at Oggie Base. The hill party deploying from Gerlan was stood down.
107 Cwm Idwal 29 Oct 2019 18:15 2 hours 15 minutes Report of lights/ overdue climbers 11 members attended	A male reported seeing SOS lights close to the Devil's Kitchen and he had also been speaking to a lady who was waiting at Ogwen for 2 overdue climbers. A small hill party was dispatched to investigate, by which time the lady had departed and there were no flashing lights on the hill. Team stood down.
106 Fairy Glen, Betws y Coed 28 Oct 2019 14:45 3 hours 45 minutes Search 13 members attended	A member of the public reported an upside down kayak in the river at the Fairy Glen. There were no reports of a missing or overdue kayaker but there was a possibility that a solo kayaker may be in difficulty. The kayak was retrieved from the river but had no identification on it so team members carried out a hasty search of the river banks before darkness fell. At this point the incident was passed back to NWP for further investigation. If you are the owner of the boat please contact OVMRO or North Wales Police.
105 Cwm Bochlwyd 27 Oct 2019 13:00 3 hours 40 minutes 1 person Hill walking 10 members attended	A male walker slipped near the summit of Glyder Fach and injured his shoulder. He managed to slowly make his way down the mountain assisted by his walking companion, however, on the way down from Bwlch Tryfan to Llyn Bochlwyd they decided to ask for help. Hill parties met up with him at the Bochlwyd outflow and the decision was made to request the Coastguard Helicopter due to his increasing pain. The aircraft was able to land on and get him aboard for a trip to hospital whilst his friend walked off with team members.
104 West face of Tryfan 26 Oct 2019 19:45 1 hours 15 minutes Report of lights 4 members attended	A motorist, who had briefly parked at Ogwen Cottage, reported seeing flashing lights on the West Face of Tryfan close to the summit. He called 999 to report his concern that a walker may be in difficulty, but then left the area. Three team members were deployed to Ogwen to check for lights on Tryfan but nothing was seen. False alarm with good intent for walkers descending using headtorches.
103 Aber Falls 21 Oct 2019 15:05 3 hours 0 minutes 1 person Walking 20 members attended	A male walker, out with his family, slipped on the grass close to the base of Aber Falls and suffered a knee injury. There was significant swelling and he was unable to weightbear. Team members were on scene quickly, his leg was splinted and then it was a short stretcher carry to the team vehicle.
102 Cwm Eigiau 19 Oct 2019 16:50 1 hours 40 minutes 2 people Hill walking 13 members attended	A party of 2 walkers believed they had walked south from the summit of Carnedd Llewelyn and then lost the path in the cloud. When they were located using Phonefind they were actually just above the crags at the southern end of Llyn Eigiau. They managed to get themselves down on to the track where they were met by a team vehicle and driven back to the Ogwen Valley.
101 Aber Falls/ Bera Bach 19 Oct 2019 15:25 2 hours 35 minutes 10 people Hill walking 14 members attended	A group of 10 walkers attempted to walk from Aber to Bera Mawr via Drosgl but then proceeded to get lost in the cloud above Aber Falls. A passing walker offered to assist them down and their progress was monitored with Phonefind until they reached the main path.
100 Ogwen Valley area 17 Oct 2019 16:30 2 hours 30 minutes 1 person Hill walking 13 members attended	A solo male walker rang 999 to say he was stuck on a cliff edge. He was unable to give any idea of his location except he could see a road and maybe Ogwen Cottage where he had parked his car, and no further calls would connect with his phone. Hill parties went out to search the usual hotspots in the Ogwen Valley and the Coastguard helicopter also searched the main cliff areas before returning to Caernarfon to await further information. Soon afterwards he turned up safe and well at Pen y Pass having got lost whilst walking n the Glyderau.
99 Cwm Eigiau 10 Oct 2019 19:00 3 hours 40 minutes 2 people Hill walking 7 members attended	A couple had been walking in the Ogwen area since 11am and reported it was now dark and they had no idea where they were. With the use of Phonefind their position was found to be above the steep ground on the west side of Llyn Eigiau. A small hill party drove up the landrover track towards Melynllyn and then walked across to the lost party. They were brought back to the team vehicle and then driven back to their car.
98 Pen yr Ole Wen 5 Oct 2019 21:35 1 hours 55 minutes 5 people Hillwalking 8 members attended	A party of 5 adults reported themselves lost in fog on the lower slopes of Pen yr Ole Wen. They were encouraged to use OS Locate to provide a grid reference and then the Team Leader was able to give them directions on how to find the path and walk down to the road. A couple of team members went out to meet them.
97 Llandudno, Great Orme 3 Oct 2019 22:20 2 hours 25 minutes 1 person Missing person search 8 members attended	The team were asked to assist with a search for a high-risk missing female who was last seen in the Llandudno area. Team members and SARDA teams were deployed in the Great Orme area to search and shortly afterwards a dog team located the female. She was taken to a place of safety and the team stood down.
96 Tryfan 2 Oct 2019 13:40 1 hours 25 minutes 1 person Hill walking 8 members attended	A party of 4 were scrambling the summit section of the North Ridge of Tryfan, when one of their party fell about 5m heavily impacting his hip. He was able to make it a short distance slowly before being unable to move further due to the pain. He was put in to a bivvy bag by the group and they called for assistance. After initial discussion with the group and calling the team out, a request was made for Rescue 936 to attend given the location high on Tryfan. Team members gathered at Oggi Base to support the helicopter but were not needed as Rescue 936 was able to winch the casualty after assessment.
95 Waterfall Gully, Tryfan 30 Sep 2019 11:40 2 hours 50 minutes 2 people Hill walking 9 members attended	A party of 2 had left the roadside at 0830 in the morning and climbed to about 750m on Tryfan before deciding to reverse their route down. In the process of descending they went off route and ended up stuck in Waterfall Gully. A hill party deployed but R936 were also tasked as the walkers claimed to be in a precarious position. The hill party were quickly on scene and after discussion with R936 it was agreed that the ground party could easily extract the walkers. They were roped up to safe ground and walked off.
94 Milestone Buttress 28 Sep 2019 17:20 2 hours 10 minutes 2 people Hill walking 13 members attended	A pair of walkers descending the North Ridge went astray and found themselves on seriously steep ground adjacent to the Milestone Buttress. They had no phone signal but luckily their shouts for help were heard by a member of the public in the car park. A hill party, including RAF Leeming MRT members, deployed with ropes and tech kit to access their location, however the Coastguard Helicopter which was already in the area training was able to come in for a quick snatch. The pair were dropped off at Oggie Base and all team members returned off the hill.
93 Tryfan 25 Sep 2019 09:20 18 hours 0 minutes 2 people Hill walking 5 members attended	Two males and a dog became lost in the dark, high on the East face of Tryfan, having set off from the road at 5pm. They were on very steep ground with no idea which way to go so were told to wait for team members to reach them. Poor weather conditions prevented any assistance from the Coastguard helicopter so a party of 3 deployed with extra clothing and warm drinks. The lost party were located, warmed up and then walked down Western gulley to the road.
92 Miner's Bridge, Betws y Coed 23 Sep 2019 15:20 2 hours 5 minutes 1 person Walking 11 members attended	A female walker slipped on rocks in the woodland a short distance east of the Miner's Bridge. She sustained a painful ankle injury and could not walk so called for an ambulance. The ambulance service were extremely busy so asked the team to attend. Team members were quickly on scene, splinted the ankle and then assisted the lady up to the road (helped by some off-duty soldiers). She was then driven to the local MIU for assessment and her family would collect her from there.
91 Moel Siabod 21 Sep 2019 21:00 3 hours 5 minutes 1 person Hill walking 7 members attended	A solo male hill walker set off late afternoon to climb Moel Siabod, reaching the summit at about 7pm. Darkness fell as he descended and he became disorientated, finally calling 999 as he had no idea which way to go. The use of SARLOC put him close to a landrover track just above Capel Curig, so a team vehicle drove up to find him and to return him to the road.
90 Capelulo 20 Sep 2019 13:30 3 hours 0 minutes 1 person Medical problem 3 members attended	A lady living in an isolated property above Capelulo became unwell and the ambulance service needed help to reach her. The track to her house was only passable with a 4x4 so asked the team to assist. A paramedic walked up to the house whilst a team member negotiated the track in his Landrover. Luckily the lady was able to be transported in the passenger seat and was driven down to the ambulance for transport to hospital.
89 Pen yr Helgi Ddu 18 Sep 2019 22:30 1 hours 0 minutes 2 people Concern for others 2 members attended	A walker reported his concern for other walkers he thought might be stuck or overdue from a scramble on Pen yr Helgi Ddu. However, there was little information so no MRT deployment was considered necessary unless further reports were made to NWP.
88 Cwm Llugwy 17 Sep 2019 13:30 1 hours 30 minutes Report of stray dog 2 members attended	A member of the public reported a stray dog, possibly a working farm dog, by itself in the Cwm Llugwy area and was concerned for its welfare. Two team members drove up the reservoir, located the dog but it immediately ran away up the hillside onto Pen yr Helgi Ddu. It did not appear injured or unwell, so NWP and local farmers were updated on its location and the team took no further action.
87 Castell y Gwynt 15 Sep 2019 14:00 3 hours 50 minutes 1 person Fell running 17 members attended	A female fell runner on an organised event rang NWP to say she was lost and had a head injury from falling. Phonefind placed her just south of Castell y Gwynt but no further communication with her was possible. Due to the fact that she was alone very high up on the mountain in bad weather it was decided to seek assistance from the Coastguard Helicopter at Caernarfon. R936 managed to fly team members to approx. 650m on the south side of the Glyderau whilst another 2 team members set off from the brewshack to walk up. Shortly afterwards the race event was found on the internet and her live tracker location put her close to the Miner's path near Caseg Ffraith. All team members were diverted to the new location where she was found to be with medics from the race event who had been alerted by the tracker system. As the weather was still bad she was encouraged to keep walking slowly downhill until she was below cloud base and then R936 came back in and flew her to hospital.
86 Tryfan 14 Sep 2019 14:45 4 hours 25 minutes 1 person Hill walking 14 members attended	A female walker slipped close to the summit of Tryfan and injured her ankle. The other members of her group tried to assist her down but it was too painful so they asked for assistance. One team member passing by was on scene within minutes and recommended an aircraft if possible. Unfortunately the Coastguard Helicopter was already tasked to a serious incident in Mid Wales, so a small hill party deployed with as much kit as they could carry. Valley MRT, who were training in the Moelwyns, were put on stand by as there were not enough Oggie team members for a stretcher carry from the summit. The Coastguard helicopter became available just as the stretcher party arrived at the cas site, so the lady was quickly packaged in the stretcher and winched aboard for a short flight to hospital.
85 Gwydyr Forest 8 Sep 2019 20:10 0 hours 40 minutes 2 people Walking 2 members attended	Two walkers reported themselves lost in Gwydyr forest.

82 Foel Fras 1 Sep 2019 12:05 2 hours 10 minutes 1 person D of E Expedition 14 members attended	A 17 year old female, part of a Duke of Edinburgh Expedition, suffered a dislocated kneecap whilst walking on the East side of Foel Fras. Due to the weather conditions and location the Coastguard Helicopter was also tasked. The heli took a hill party up to the cas party to assist in the stretcher carry to the aircraft, then flew the girl to Ysbyty Gwynedd.
81 Conwy Mountain 31 Aug 2019 17:40 1 hours 40 minutes 1 person Hill walking 11 members attended	A female walker in a walking group tripped at the end of a long day, resulting in a painful elbow injury and facial lacerations. Initially she felt very shocked and nauseous so the group called for an ambulance who then contacted the team due to the mountain location. Whilst the team were deploying the lady started to feel a little better and bravely started to walk slowly down the hill. The team met up with her about 10 mins from the road, assessed the injury and then continued to support her back to the road. She was advised to attend the local hospital.
80 Sheep Pen boulders , Nant Ffrancon 25 Aug 2019 21:35 1 hours 40 minutes 3 people Bouldering 5 members attended	One female and two male boulderers from the South of England misjudged their descent from Sheep Pen boulders and were caught out by the dark with no torches. Their friends at the roadside were able to indicate their location to the small hill party who deployed. Extra torches were taken up to the group who were then able to walk off unaided despite wearing 'sliders',
79 Cwm Bochlwyd 25 Aug 2019 09:15 4 hours 0 minutes 1 person Hill walking 7 members attended	A male walker slipped and injured his ankle close to Llyn Bochlwyd. As he was unable to walk his friend rang for help. A small hill party deployed to scene to treat and package the casualty and the plan was for R936 to then lift the casualty. Unfortunately R936 was diverted to another incident so the casualty had to be stretchered off with a very limited number of team members. Hard work for everyone involved.
78 Llwytmor 25 Aug 2019 01:40 7 hours 5 minutes 1 person Hillwalking 1 member attended	A solo female walker had had a long day out on the Carneddau when she made a navigational error on her return to the Aber Falls valley. She spent a long time trying to find a safe way down in the darkness but finally asked for help. Unfortunately she did not have a smart phone so she could not be located that way, however she was able to use her map and compass to provide extra information. Initially it seemed that she was on the east side of Moel Wynion. She agreed to sit down and wait for daylight as it was a warm night and she had no other problems. In the morning the TL contacted her again and after much discussion and map reading they worked out that she was actually on the west slopes of Llwytmor. With a little guidance she was able to descend to the top of Aber Falls and then found the correct descent path to the valley. Good effort.
77 Foel Lus 24 Aug 2019 14:05 1 hours 35 minutes 1 person Walking 6 members attended	A female in a walking group collapsed with a cardiac arrest on a footpath on Foel Lus. The air ambulance was immediately tasked and the team were asked to provide support on the ground. Initial resuscitation attempts were successful and the lady was flown to hospital, however we were informed later that the lady had sadly passed away.
76 North Ridge Tryfan 21 Aug 2019 18:40 1 hours 15 minutes 1 person Hill walking 18 members attended	As the casualty from the previous incident arrived at Oggie base on the helicopter, the team were tasked again to another male walker from the same group who was stuck on the North Ridge. Again poor Comms and a poor description of his location meant that the Coastguard helicopter was re-tasked after refuelling at Caernarfon base. The crew soon spotted the male, winched him on board and dropped him at Oggie base to be reunited with the rest of his group.
75 West Face of Tryfan 21 Aug 2019 17:00 2 hours 30 minutes 1 person Hill walking 21 members attended	A male walker, part of a large group, became separated from the rest of his group on the descent of the North Ridge of Tryfan. He rang for help when he managed to get stuck on a small ledge on a very steep rock face. Unfortunately there were no further communications with him and he had only given a limited description of his location. Spotters on the roadside finally managed to locate him and hill parties were deployed with rope rescue kit. Because of the technical difficulty of access to his location the Coastguard helicopter was tasked and luckily winched him to safety.
74 Glyder Fawr 20 Aug 2019 19:30 2 hours 20 minutes 2 people Hill walking 9 members attended	A father and teenage daughter had been walking across the Glyderau when they became lost and disorientated in the cloud cover. Very poor comms initially made it difficult to define a search area as the Grid Reference given was clearly incorrect. Hasty search parties were deployed to go up through the Devil's Kitchen onto Glyder Fawr, but shortly afterwards the Cas party provided information which placed them lower down on the west slopes of the mountain. The incident was passed to Llanberis MRT who requested the Coastguard helicopter and the Cas party were located and flown back to the valley.
73 V cleft, West Face Tryfan 17 Aug 2019 16:50 3 hours 45 minutes 4 people Hill walking 9 members attended	A family of four got lost on the descent of the North Ridge of Tryfan and eventually rang for help when they became stuck on a ledge and unable to move. Using Phonefind their location was determined as V Cleft. A hill party with technical kit set off up the North Ridge whilst the availability of the Coastguard helicopter was discussed. Luckily R936 had just completed a previous tasking and were able to fly in and assess the situation, and then were able to winch the family directly from scene. They were all dropped off at Oggie Base for a debrief.
72 Glyder Fach summit 13 Aug 2019 11:25 3 hours 45 minutes 1 person Hill walking 7 members attended	The team were contacted as a female walker had fallen approx 10ft on the summit area and banged her head. There was concern that she may be concussed so the Coastguard helicopter was tasked whilst team members gathered at Oggie base. When the winchman deployed at the casualty site he reported that the lady also had hip pain and so he would require assistance with stretcher loading. Five team members were flown up to the summit, helped with the packaging and then the lady was flown to hospital whilst the remainder of her group walked down with the team.
71 Gribin Ridge 10 Aug 2019 16:30 4 hours 40 minutes 2 people Hill walking 8 members attended	A father and 10 year old son became lost in the low cloud at the top of the Gribin Ridge in challenging weather conditions. Limited communication initially but then the father was able to send a screenshot of his position on Googlemaps. A hill party deployed to the area via Col Gully and soon located the lost pair. They were roped down the top end of the Gribin and then walked back down to the road. They were given advice on how to be better prepared and equipped for days in the mountains.
70 Milestone Buttress area 6 Aug 2019 18:20 3 hours 40 minutes 4 people Hill walking 10 members attended	Initial report was of a 10yo male with a head laceration on Tryfan and the family were now stuck. Unfortunately the mobile number given was unobtainable and the GR given placed the group in the Nant Peris area. Both Llanberis MRT and Ogwen MR members started with low level searches as the informant stated they were only 400 yards from the road. Further investigation by NWP placed them iin the Tryfan area so Llanberis MRT stood down. The Coastguard Helicopter was tasked to search the area as the condition of the child was unknown. They were finally located above the Milestone Buttress by the heli but it was poor conditions for a winch and the group appeared to be safe and well, just stuck. A hill party were guided in, roped the family group to safe ground and walked them back to the road.
69 Bristley Ridge 3 Aug 2019 17:10 5 hours 50 minutes 4 people Scrambling 12 members attended	Four inexperienced male walkers became stuck on the east side of Bristley Ridge after going off route. They became cragfast in a wet gully and lacked confidence to go up or down. A hill party located them, roped them to safe ground and then walked them off the hill.
68 Waterfall Gully, Tryfan 28 Jul 2019 13:25 1 hours 15 minutes 4 people Hill walking 13 members attended	A group of 4 walkers descended into the area of Waterfall Gully, low down on the North Ridge of Tryfan, and became stuck .

67 Glyder Fach 27 Jul 2019 20:45 1 hours 15 minutes 3 people Rockclimbing 1 member attended	Just as the previous incident was finishing a report was made of 3 climbers overdue from a day on Chasm Route, Glyder Fach. They had set off at 11am fully equipped and very experienced but had been expected back much earlier. As the TL was collecting information they made contact to say they were at the top of the Bristley Screes and did not need assistance. Incident closed.
66 North Ridge Tryfan 27 Jul 2019 16:40 3 hours 20 minutes 1 person Hill walking 13 members attended	A 74 year old male had completed 2 routes on Tryfan but unfortunately slipped on the descent and suffered a large gash to his lower leg. A hasty party was deployed to assess his injury and a back up stretcher party were deployed a short time afterwards. The male, after pain relief was given, was able to slowly walk with assistance down the lower part of the North Ridge and down NoName gully towards the top of Little Tryfan. At this point the Coastguard Helicopter managed to sneak under the cloud and lift him to speed up his admission to hospital. All team members plus the informant then returned to base.
65 Penmon 27 Jul 2019 14:25 2 hours 5 minutes 1 person Scrambling 4 members attended	An elderly male reported himself stuck on a cliff face near the disused quarries at Penmon.

Due to the possibility of an underlying head injury, the Coastguard helicopter was asked to attend whilst team members made their way to the forest tracks just south of the casualty location. The heli was able to lift the casualty and fly him to Bangor hospital for treatment, whilst the rest of his group walked off the mountain.
63 Rhos on Sea 24 Jul 2019 05:10 3 hours 15 minutes 3 people Missing persons 1 member attended	The team were asked to assist NEWSAR in the search for 3 missing children in the Rhos on Sea area.
