They should title that one "how not to go hiking". They split up the group, and different search teams found different members. Not good.

The Victor trail is one of the shorter loop hikes in Palm Canyon. Maybe a 3 mile loop. I'm amazed they actually called 911 for help. Just walk the fuck back to the parking lot.

And by 3 mile loop i mean you are never more then 1.5 miles from where you parked your car.
