Teens Injured in White Tank Mountains

Pimentel told rescue crews he and his friends were hiking on an unmarked trail when a boulder dislodged and struck them.

Rescue crews described the boulder as massive and possibly weighing more than 700 pounds

Apparently they started on the Waterfall Trail before going off-trail.


I watched the rescue video and can't quite figure out where they were at. The way the situation is described, it's a good thing the injuries weren't more severe.

A 50 pound rock falling on my ankle last week got my attention. I can't imagine what a 700 pour rock would do ...
