@TheLakesTony @paulhamill88@Marmas83 When your on the other side having to rescue people that have no concern for others welfare you'll think twice about putting yourself and rescue teams in danger! Complete disregard for others!
Stay at home and exercise locally. This does not mean, “let’s hike with five others to an exposed plateau and camp“ ignoring every COVID rule, and every plea from our Mountain Rescue Teams to help save lives. Now isn’t the time to have an adventure. #StayHome
If you see a road closed sign or winter weather warning, please don’t ignore it. Some of the higher routes are very challenging at the moment. Our Rangers, Emergency Services & Mountain Rescue Teams don’t need the additional pressure.📍Newlands Pass 📸 https://t.co/DfvHOLel7Q
Hartside Pass 📍
If travelling along the A686 Penrith to Alston, please take care. The Pass still has patches of ice on it even though gritters have been out.
Drive to arrive.

This gorgeous lady has been found near the Bell Close Car Park in Keswick. She’s at the Tourist Information Centre (Moot Hall) if you hear of anyone looking for their dog.
Wild campers were rescued from a Lake District hill this morning. @patterdaleMRT was called at about 0230am following reports that two adults and a child were stuck on Hallin Fell after their tent blew over. Five volunteers were involved in a rescue lasting 2.5 hrs.
Many of the #lakedistrict car parks between Ambleside and Grasmere are now full. Check https://t.co/cgCUBIUnbt for updates on places where you can park and have a great afternoon. 🅿️🚗
Every day we have dozens of colleagues and volunteers on patrol monitoring how busy car parks are, helping & welcoming visitors and dealing with any problems we encounter. If you spot us, come and say hello. We also update https://t.co/cgCUBIUnbt from 0700-1700 daily.
We absolutely love welcoming visitors to the #LakeDistrict. But please park sensibly and don’t narrow or block roads. Think - is my parking likely to slow down / block an Ambulance, Fire Engine or Mountain Rescue Team? If the answer is yes - park somewhere else please. 🚒🚑🚓🏔
