Barf (66)

Callout Date: 07/06/2026
Callout Time: 1:53 pm
Agencies Involved: Keswick MRT

A mother and daughter had set off to ascend Barf via the Bishop when they became stuck on the steep, unpleasant scree. A small team was despatched and quickly reached the couple who were short roped back down to the Swan Hotel.

Fortunately the number of call outs to crag fast people who use this path has reduced since the signs at the bottom recommend a less daunting route up Beckstones Gill.

7 team members – 2 hours 2 minutes
