Mother and Two Sons Rescued in Eaton Canyon

September 7, 2010

A 45 year-old mother and her two young sons, ages 6 and 8, became trapped on a steep mountainside in the Eaton Canyon area and had to be rescued by L.A. Sheriff's Deputies and Altadena Mountain Rescue Team members. The trio went off trail in search of a waterfall when they found themselves stranded on a very steep, loose slope.

L.A. County Sheriff's Air 5 rescue helicopter crew members, were able to lift them from their unstable perch and lower them to safety in the canyon bottom where AMRT members provided them with water and transported them to their vehicle in the Eaton Canyon Parking area.
