A woman got lost in steep terrain in Griffith Park Monday, prompting a rescue effort by Los Angeles Fire Department crews who found her uninjured.
According to LAFD spokesman Brian Humphrey, fire crews responded to the area west of the Bird Sanctuary Loop Trail around 3:45 p.m.
Crews were able to locate the woman and began a ground-based rope rescue to bring the uninjured woman out of the difficult terrain. A pair of fire department helicopters responded to the scene to help coordinate the rescue effort, but Humphrey said crews did not anticipate the need for a helicopter hoist operation to lift the woman to safety.
It was not immediately clear how the woman got lost and stranded in the area.
