​Shortly after midday, the Team was requested to assist a Welsh Ambulance Service (WAST) crew access an injured man at Aberllefenni, near Corris.

In the very wet conditions, the 34 year old male had slipped in the mouth of old quarry workings at the top of a very steep incline. Having dislocated his shoulder in the fall he was in a great deal of pain and unable to move himself. A WAST crew attended the incident but identified that they were unable to transport him from the precarious position and requested the Team's assistance.

Having been given pain relief, the man was loaded onto a stretcher and lowered down the quarry incline. As the ground became less steep, the Team was able to carry the stretcher down to the waiting ambulance. The man was taken to Bronglais Hospital for further assessment and treatment. Everyone was off the hill by 3:15 p.m.

At around 11:20 p.m. call-handlers from the Team were made aware of a party of walkers stuck on Cader Idris.

The group, consisting of a man and five women, were players and coaches from a rugby club in the south-east of England. Attempting the Welsh 3-peaks challenge, the party had left Kent on Friday evening, and had commenced the climb of Snowdon at 5 a.m. and Cader Idris at 2:30 p.m. 

Having reached the summit of Cader Idris, a combination of poor weather, encroaching darkness and navigational errors took the group away from the intended route and on to the steep crags above Cwm Cau. While some of the group tried to find a way down, others called for mountain rescue assistance.

Using smart-phone technology, call-handlers were able to pinpoint their location amongst the crags and the group was directed to retrace their steps up the steep ground to the plateau above, then move to intercept a fence line which would mark the safer way down from Mynydd Moel. A small party of Team volunteers was dispatched up the hill to provide extra lighting and assistance as the group made their way off the mountain. Tired after around 20 hours on the go, the walkers were otherwise unharmed, and everyone was safely off the hill by 3:30 a.m.

Shortly after 3:00 p.m. call handlers from the Team were made aware of a walker stuck on a scree above Llyn Cau on Cader Idris.

With no further details or means of contacting the casualty, a hasty-party of Team volunteers was tasked to head up the mountain to see if they could establish contact with the walker.

​As rescuers were heading to the scene, news came through that the man had been assisted by passing walkers and the Team was stood down.

At around 5:30 p.m. call-handlers from the Team were made aware of a Group of 6 walkers lost on Cader Idris.

The group was composed of two independent parties, one of which was attempting the Welsh 3 peaks to raise money for charity, and both were lost in the low cloud and rain on the summit plateau of Mynydd Moel. The groups joined forces to find a way off, but ended up coming down on the north rather than the south side of the mountain. Finding themselves on the edge of darkness, wet cold and tired, and having run off the edge of their map, they called for help.

Team volunteers moved up the hill to meet the group, provide extra lighting, and escort them down to the road-head. Everyone was safely back at vehicles shortly after 8:00 p.m.
