A man and woman were out walking on Chrome Hill, near Longnor in very windy conditions when they became separated.  After searching for his walking partner to no avail the male phoned for assistance.

Eleven team members responded and were en-route to Chrome Hill when the lady was located in nearby Longnor safe and well.  The team was stood down.
