 Story highlights Police: "She walked quite a distance in a very, very threatening environment" 
 
 She walks to a house, then flags a motorist 
 
 Her father does not survive 
 
 "They were really close," her sister says 
 
 When their SUV plunged off the side of a desolate California highway and landed 200 feet into a ravine, the little girl knew she had to do something to help her father who lay unconscious in the driver's seat of the overturned vehicle. 
 
 The girl, all of 9 years old, freed herself and crawled out of the window of the wrecked Ford Escape. 
 
 She smelled gasoline and turned off the engine. 
 
 And then she started walking, in pitch black darkness, through steep and forbidding terrain. 
 
 "She walked quite a distance in a very, very threatening environment," California Highway Patrol Sgt. Tom Lackey told CNN affiliate KABC. "It's very black out here, very dark. It's very steep and it's brushy and there's also coyotes in the background." 
 
 The wreck took place about 1 a.m. Sunday on Sierra Highway in Acton, an unincorporated rural area in Los Angeles County. 
 
 Police told CNN the SUV careened off the road and rolled over several times before coming to rest upside down. 
 
 The girl noticed a light about 1,000 feet away and walked over to the home. 
 
 No one answered the door, police said. 
 
 So, she walked back to the mangled SUV to check on her father. 
 
 Then, police said, she hiked 200 feet up the embankment to the highway. 
 
 Her goal: to make it to the nearest lit area, a commuter rail station about a mile away. 
 
 There, she flagged a passing motorist, who called police. 
 
 But by the time officers reached the SUV, it was too late. 
 
 The father, 35-year-old Alejandro Renteria, had died of his injuries. 
 
 "They were really close. And that hurts me the most," Amber Mejia, the girl's sister, told CNN affiliate KCAL. 
 
 The pair was returning from a friend's house when the father failed to make a steep curve on the road, the girl told police. Police suspect alcohol played a role. 
 
 The girl, who suffered minor bruises, will remain under observation at a hospital until Tuesday. 
 
 Relatives said she was faring well, considering the circumstances.
– A 9-year-old girl is being hailed as both astute and brave after trekking more than a mile for help after an early-morning car crash in California yesterday. Celia Renteria was riding with her father when their SUV crashed around 1am, landing in a ravine and leaving her father unconscious, reports CBS Los Angeles; police think alcohol may have been involved. Celia climbed out the window and, smelling gas, turned off the engine. She then journeyed through the dark, rural area across a difficult landscape to find help, CNN reports. The girl saw a home some 1,000 feet away; when she arrived, no one answered the door. She returned to check on her dad before climbing up a 200-foot embankment. From there, she walked to a commuter rail station, where she hailed a passing car. "She walked quite a distance in a very, very threatening environment," a police officer said. "It's very black out here ... It's very steep and it's brushy and there's also coyotes in the background." CBS pegs the distance at nearly two miles. The driver who stopped called police, but when they arrived at the SUV, the girl's 35-year-old father had died. "They were really close. And that hurts me the most," says Celia's sister.
