Sheriff's deputies, volunteers and others worked together to free the woman from a cave in an area known as Thunder Canyon Cave off McCain Valley Road near the community of Boulevard
A 29-year-old woman was stuck in a 12-inch-wide 'gap' in a cave in East County for about 16 hours before rescuers freed her late Sunday morning, a sheriff's official said. It occurred in an area known as Thunder Canyon Cave — made up of openings formed between piled-up boulders — off McCain Valley Road north of the rural community of Boulevard. The woman was 'traversing a narrow opening' in the cave with friends Saturday when she got stuck, sheriff's Lt.
'It takes hours to hike into the caves and rescuers had to inch their way into very narrow passages while slowly passing along their gear and equipment,' Ford said in a news release. 'They checked on the patient and kept her warm with blankets to prevent hypothermia.' They used 'roping mechanisms' to rescue her, the lieutenant added. The woman was freed about 10 a.m. Sunday.
