Incident 33. At 16:00 the team was called by the Police who had concerns for a walker who had not returned from a camping trip. The 62 year old had set off from Postbridge with three dogs and although overdue had made no contact with family. Search parties were deployed northwards on either side of the East Dart river and we then received information that although unhurt the walker was exhausted and could not get one of the dogs over the stile over the wall near Broad Down. One of our hill parties then assisted him and then escorted them all back to Postbridge, arriving at 19:30.
