They had requested assistance after becoming cold and wet. The four were unable to descend in the dark due to the lack of torches. The Arrochar Mountain Rescue Team despatched 4 team members to the site; these helped the campers pack and walked them off the mountain in the early morning light. Police Scotland Mountain Rescue Team were also in attendance.
