October 6, 2025 (Descanso) – A goat trapped between boulders on Mizpah Lane in Descanso has been freed, thanks to the efforts of Cal Fire/San Diego Fire crews.
Firefighters from Station 44 in Pine Valley and Station 45 in Descanso responded and performed a technical rescue to extricate the goat.
“We are deeply honored to serve our communities and grateful for the trust placed in us to help when it’s needed most,” Cal Fire/County Fire posted on Facebook, then quipped, “When a goat finds itself between a rock and a hard place, our firefighters don’t kid around!”
From the goat’s perspective, no doubt the rescue was the greatest of all time—otherwise known as G.O.A.T.
