A FRANTIC text message has saved six Highton scouts who were trapped by a rising tide at the base of an Anglesea cliff yesterday.
The group was hiking towards Eumeralla Scout Camp about 2pm when rising waters cornered them in a cave for almost three hours.
Emergency services were alerted after 14-year-old Adrian Robinson text messaged his mother, Kerry, telling her they were stuck on the beach between Point Addis and Anglesea.
