The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Hiking Plan can be used to help keep record of where a person is hiking or camping. By filling out the form and leaving it with a friend or family member, search and rescue teams will have information on where to start their search in case of a delayed return. It is a precaution that could save a life.
