The L.A. County Sheriff’s Department blames social media fame seekers for the sharp increase in search and rescue missions. Over the past five years, the number of such missions has spiked by 38% in the city, reaching a record high of 681 in 2017. Officials don’t think it’s a coincidence that the City of Angels is full of Instagrammable outdoor spots, saying unprepared social media hopefuls are going to off-the-grid spots popularized via geotag and getting lost—or worse.
