Rescue on the North Face of San Jacinto

Please use extreme caution while in the mountains.
RMRU and STAR-9 conducted a rescue today of 2 subjects on the north face of San Jacinto mountain. The extreme heat has been setting off avalanches from the large storm last week. The subjects got caught in one and called for a rescue. This is video of one of the avalanches from a RMRU member during the rescue operation.
