An inquest into the deaths of Eddie Hill and Jayden Long has provided new details regarding the final moments of the two men on Yr Wyddfa. During the hearing, it was established that the pair attempted to reach emergency services via a 999 call before they died.

Evidence presented at the inquest addressed the handling of the emergency communication. The hearing concluded that the 999 call made by the men was properly escalated by the emergency dispatchers. While the inquest confirmed the procedural handling of the call, it did not provide extensive details regarding the specific circumstances that led to the men becoming stranded or the exact nature of the emergency they faced on the mountain. The findings focus primarily on the response of the emergency services rather than the broader context of the incident.
