I stumbled across a large group on Dartmoor one night a few years back. I was doing some night nav practice with my son and it was about 4hrs after dark, Feb, pouring with rain thick mist etc etc.
There was about 8 of them and they only had 2 head torches between them. I asked if they were OK (as they seriously didnt look OK), the chap at the front with the headtorch said they were fine and refused our offers of guidance...spare headtorches etc so we walked on slowly. After 5 mins I could see the headtorch bobing towards us as the guy was chasing us with the obvious question..."excuse me...but where are we?""
Long story short but once again they insisted they didnt need our help after locating them, but ignoring this we made sure we kept their lights in our sight all the way off the moor.
Back in civilisation there were 2 police cars and 3 MRT landrovers parked on the roadside...and we could guess who they were looking for and could tell them exactly where they were!! Blokes just wont ask for help....
