On Saturday afternoon volunteers from the team were called to assist a
group of walkers on the upper reaches of the Foxes Path on Cadair Idris.
The party of three men and one woman had encountered snow covered ice sheets and found themselves unable to move either up or down.
A team member, already on the mountain, was quickly on the scene and secured the group, while a small rescue party made their way up the Foxes path. Using confidence-ropes where appropriate, the walkers were escorted down the difficult scree, and everyone was off the mountain before darkness fell.
