       > The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said on Twitter
       that the agency's Special Enforcement Bureau used a helicopter
       to rescue the man and woman and their two dogs after the pair
       became trapped 14 days ago.
       >
       > The couple, who were not identified, and their dogs were
       camping on the north side of Alamo Mountain near Frazier
       Mountain Park about 75 miles north of Los Angeles when storms
       struck the region. A tree near where the couple was camping
       fell, blocking access to the road. As the snow continued
       falling, and with no way out, their truck got stuck.
       >
       > “I think they were thinking the snow was going to melt a
       little quicker than it did and that’s why they were waiting it
       out,” Charles Miranda, a paramedic with the Los Angeles
       Sheriff’s Department,
       >
       > But after waiting two weeks, the campers were out of supplies.
       >
       > “They had fuel for the stove to melt the water, but then they
       ran out of fuel,” Miranda told FOX11. “They were thirsty because
       they weren’t able to get water out of the snow.”
       >
       > The couple had to hike a couple miles to be able to get cell
       reception before contacting 911 through an app, according to
       Miranda.
       >
       > “We were able to locate their latitude and longitude," he
       said.
       >
       > A team of five deputies then were transported by a rescue
       helicopter and were able to hoist the couple and dogs to safety.
       The couple was dehydrated, sunburned, hungry and tired when they
       were rescued -- but weren’t injured, according to FOX11.
