As we write, there are two rescues going on simultaneously in Eaton Canyon and the Angeles National Forest.
According to Sgt. Gary Ogurek of the Crescenta Valley Sheriff's Station, a male and female had fallen off a cliff near Eaton Falls this morning. The man died but the woman was rescued, Ogurek said.
Meanwhile, near Gould Mesa, a horse and rider have fallen about 6-8 feet according to reports, and rescue is presently underway.
