Description:: Twenty-one Boy Scouts and three leaders from Troop 47 in Los Angeles drinking hot chocolate after being marooned overnight on a bluff 1000 feet above the canyon floor in the Upper Arroyo Seco Canyon. The scouts became lost on their way back during a seven mile hike between Switzer's Camp and Oake Wilde. The troop lit matches to signal a rescue party of parents, deputy sheriffs, and county prisoners. One of the leaders, David Swaim, suffered a minor heart attack two miles from camp so the scouts carried him the rest of the way on a stretcher.
