Ten teenage hikers lost on the trails of a southern California canyon were found with the help of Apple's Emergency SOS feature, which allows iPhone users to call or text local emergency services, sometimes even without cell service or Wi-Fi access.
A group of 10 teenage hikers who spent their Friday night lost on the trails of a southern California canyon before a search and rescue team found them with the help of an iPhone feature"were not prepared" for their climb, according to officials.
"Most had t-shirts and shorts," Spears said in a text message. She added that temperatures were in the 60s and that"there were multiple water crossings and they needed to scramble," or climb steep terrain by hand, in certain sections of the hike. The teens reached out to the Ventura County Sheriff's Office at around 8 p.m. on Friday when they found themselves lost on the trails, according to the news release from the sheriff's office.
