| Advisory: #LASD Altadena Mountain Rescue Team Returns 3 Teens Lost In Eaton Cyn To Their Families Dear Pepperdine Libboard, DATE: Saturday, August 15, 2015 VICTIM: 3 Teen Girls LOCATION: Eaton Canyon, Angeles National Forest UNIT: Altadena Mountain Rescue Team NARRATIVE: Three teen girls from Rosemead and El Monte were lost in Eaton Canyon in the 100 degree heat. They were found and returned to their families by deputy personnel, reserve and regular, of the Altadena Mountain Rescue Team. The girls had been hiking about a mile at a 1000 foot gain, at which time they got lost. Deputy personnel found the girls and transported them to safety. During the rescue, deputies were flagged down by the family of a 37-year-old woman from Anaheim, who was suffering from heat distress in the same area of Altadena, in the Angeles National Forest. Deputies transported the woman to Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel, who treated the woman on scene. Los Angeles County Sheriff and Fire Department personnel report everyone will be okay. Do you have a HIKING PLAN? Hiking/Camping is a fun way to get family and friends together to enjoy the outdoors and to get some physical activity. However, you should always be prepared for the unexpected. You should tell family and friends what your plans are and provide a list of who will be going with you. That’s why the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department would like to remind the residents of Los Angeles County (and beyond) that having a HIKING / CAMPING PLAN is crucial to survival in case of an emergency.
Before you leave, please fill out LASD – HIKING PLAN sheet and provide to a loved one to hold onto just in case something happens to a member of your hiking/camping expedition. Or, if you know someone going on a hike, ask them to fill out this easy form, so that it will help your mind at ease.
