Four men were rescued from the Brecon Beacons last weekend, after becoming lost in poor weather conditions.

A total of four rescue teams were sent to rescue the men, three of whom were wearing sandals, prompting one of the emergency team to question their outdoor equipment and preparedness, suggesting that walking footwear would have been more suitable.

They were rescued from the Cefn Cwm Llwch ridge, north of the summit of Pen y Fan, at almost 3,000 feet, after one of the men became ill with a heart condition.

A spokesperson for the Central Beacons Mountain Rescue Team said: "The men who had been camping in the national park for the weekend had become disorientated in the poor weather and their problems were then compounded by the heart condition of the casualty."

After the call made at 19:45 BST, three of the men were helped down the hill, while one was safely stretchered to an ambulance at the base of the ridge.
