Shortly before 3:00 p.m., call handlers from the Team were made aware of an injured walker on Cader Idris.

The 58 year old women was enjoying a walk on the sunny mountain with her sister. Just below Mynydd Moel she slipped on the grass and fell badly, injuring her wrist. Once again, call handlers were able to pinpoint her position using the Phonefind protocol. The lady was attended to by a passing walker and felt able to get herself down off the mountain unassisted. Progress was monitored by the call-handler to ensure she got down safely.

Shortly after 8:00 p.m. , call handlers from the Team were made aware of two walkers lost on Cader Idris.

The two women, in their early 20's and from the Midlands had started out from Minffordd, but somewhere on the summit plateau their map was lost, they consequently took a wrong turning, and ended up coming down Foxes Path. The Phonefind protocol was used to locate the pair via their smartphone, and verbal description was given to get them onto the main Foxes path. They were encouraged to keep clicking the link to help call handlers monitor their progress while a couple of Team volunteers climbed up from Gwernan Lake hotel to meet them and escort them down. 

High water levels in the Llyn Gafr outflow and other streams pushed the walkers off course just as they were about to meet with the rescuers heading up hill. Fortunately, the updated Phonefind location alerted handlers to this issue and a texted request  to hold position was sent as the rescuers were directed  to locate them.

Everyone was safely off the mountain by 10:00 p.m.

Shortly after 4;30 p.m. call-handlers from the Team received reports of an injured walker at Lake Vyrnwy.
The 42 year old female was reported to have fallen "near highest point of waterfall" at the north end of the lake, but all attempts to contact the casualty and informant failed.

As Team volunteers made their way to the scene to gather further information, a request for assistance from the Coastguard helicopter R936 was placed, as previous experience indicated  that the path at the side of the falls represents a steep and difficult stretcher carry. 

A hasty party had just reached the casualty and started an assessment when the helicopter arrived on scene. The winch man was lowered to help assess the situation, and it was decided to winch the casualty aboard. Other members of the casualty party were escorted down off the hill by team volunteers.

Everyone was safely off the hill shortly after 8:00 p.m.

Shortly before 1:00 p.m.  the Team was requested to help in the transport of an injured woman at Tre'r-ddôl south of Machynlleth.

The 47 year-old local woman had been enjoying the wooded riverside paths of the Afon Cletwr near the WildFowler's Inn with her husband when she slipped and injured her ankle.  A Coast-Guard team was first in attendance, and Aberdyfi Team volunteers arrived with equipment to help splint the injured limb and transport her off the hill.

The casualty was back down at the road shortly before 3:00 p.m. and the family made their own way to hospital for further assessment and treatment.

Shortly before 1:00 p.m. the Team was requested to assist an ambulance crew trying to access an ill walker in the hills immediately south of Machynlleth.

As volunteers were preparing to deploy, a Team member out exercising on his bike encountered the casualty and attending paramedic, who were being transported by a local farmer in his ATV. With the information that the evacuation was safely underway, the Team was stood down.

Shortly after 10 p.m. call-handlers from the Team were made aware of a child stuck on a steep slope along with two carers. 

The 14 year-old vulnerable male had absconded from a residential facility in the Dolgellau area earlier in the day. The youth was followed by a number of carers and played "cat and mouse" with the pursuing staff, before ending up in an area littered with dense tree-felling waste. As darkness fell, the child stopped running and settled on a steep slope. Carers were 20-30 feet away but unable to reach him because of the terrain. A short while later the boy reported that he had hurt his leg.

Team volunteers were able to access the scene and assess the situation. The child was able to walk on the injured leg, and the casualty party were walked out slowly through the timber debris. Everyone was safely back at the roadside by 1:15 a.m.

Shortly before 2 p.m. the Welsh Ambulance Service requested the Team's support in responding to an incident on Cader Idris. A woman in her 70's had fallen and suffered a head injury a short way up the Minffordd path. 

The Team was put on standby for a stretcher evacuation as one Team volunteer, who was by chance close to the incident site, gathered further information. The casualty was quickly located, having walked down the path with her husband's support.  An assessment revealed her injuries to be minor so she was advised to make her own way to hospital. The ambulance call was cancelled and the Team was stood down.  

Just after 6:30 p.m., call handlers from the Team were made aware of two lost walkers on Cader Idris.

Making the most of a window of good weather, the two men, in their late 20's and early 30's and visiting from Germany, headed up the Minffordd Path to make a circuit of the mountain. They summited PenyGadair without incident, but on Mynydd Moel, the lightly equipped pair missed the turn down the mountain, and with no resources to correct their error, became lost.

The men described their position as having lost the Minffordd path, but this was not in line with data gathered via their phone signal. Finally call handlers managed to reach the men by phone and their position was confirmed in line with the digital signal.

A hasty party was dispatched up the Minffordd Path to locate the pair, with other volunteers following on as they arrived. The men were found quickly, cold but otherwise uninjured, and walked off the mountain.

Everyone was off the mountain by 10:40 p.m., just before the weather window closed and returned to high winds, sleet and rain.

​Sortly before 4:30 a.m. the Team was requested to assist North Wales Police and Fire & Rescue services in the rescue of passengers from two vehicles trapped in flood-water on the A470 near Dolgellau.

As water in the river Wnion exceeded the highest levels recorded since the river gauge was opened in 1990, storm drains in the Bont Fawr underpass were unable to function and the dip in the road became flooded. Two vehicles, a van with a single passenger, and a car with two adults and a child became trapped in the water.

As the water team were gathering equipment and arriving on scene, the team was informed that the passengers had been recovered and the incident was stood down.
