CAVERS had to be rescued last night after they became lost in Cumbria.
The two cavers were reported overdue on a trip into the Ease Gill cave system via Wretched Rabbit, north east of Kirkby Lonsdale, at 7.38pm yesterday (September 6).
Cave Rescue Organisation and members of the Red Rose Cave and Pothole Club who were staying at Bull Pot Farm, carried out an initial search but the two cavers were found near Holbeck Junction having lost their way.
They were assisted out to the surface and back across the moor to the farm.
