An unidentified woman believed to be in her 20s was discovered in a canyon on Santa Catalina Island on Thursday after apparently plunging off an 800-foot cliff in the van she was driving, authorities said.
The van, belonging to the Catalina Conservancy, was found seven miles north of Avalon below a stretch of Airport Road that runs between that city and the island’s airport, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy Larry Mead said. The accident was still under investigation, he said.
