A pair of walkers were rescued yesterday after getting lost in mist on a Lakeland fell.

The walkers called for help yesterday from Starling Dodd above Ennerdale.

Cockermouth Mountain Rescue Team was called out about 5.50pm and eight members went to the aid of the walkers, who had been unable to find the path to Red Pike.

The rescuers found the pair and walked them down to safety in the valley.
