Miraculous Survival
In an astonishing tale of survival, a woman miraculously endured four harrowing nights trapped at the bottom of a canyon in the San Gabriel Mountains after her truck careened off Mt. Baldy Road. The incident occurred when the driver swerved to avoid hitting a deer, causing her vehicle to tumble a staggering 250 feet downhill before coming to a rest in the canyon's depths.
Despite suffering a broken ankle and her truck sustaining significant damage, the woman's plight remained concealed from view, as there was no cell signal to call for help. Her situation seemed bleak until January 7, when a passing fisherman, on the hunt for new fishing spots, heard her cries for assistance. Swiftly, he alerted first responders.
Responding to the call, the Los Angeles County Fire Department successfully located the woman and her disabled truck. They performed an airlift, swiftly transporting her to a nearby hospital for medical treatment, confirming her rescue to KTLA.
The San Dimas Mountain Rescue Team, a dedicated volunteer group assisting the L.A. County Sheriff's Department in search and rescue operations, emphasized the importance of carrying extra supplies when navigating mountain roads during winter. They noted that the survivor had wisely stocked her pickup with essential provisions, which enabled her to endure the freezing temperatures during her ordeal.
Authorities have not provided an update on the woman's condition, leaving many eager to learn more about her remarkable story of survival.
