Assist OVMRO with search in Snowdonia

The Team was requested to assist Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Organisation with a search of the Southern Carneddau for a walker reported as being overdue – the walker had planned to bivouac in the mountains, but had failed to make a pre-arranged phone call during the night, most probably due to lack of a good phone signal at his bivouac site.  NEWSAR members, and our SARDA dog handlers, were travelling to Ogwen Valley when the missing person made telephone contact – he was fit and well, and the original report was classed as a false alarm with good intent.
