This is a sad story. I feel bad for everyone, family, friends, rescuers.
It will be interesting to hear the wife's full story. I know I have several questions...
Did he make several attempts to find a way out... Each day for an hour..out and back...one day north, next day south, etc.
Did he find a clearing and build a signal of some sort....
Climb a tree...
Did they have any winter type preparedness....
Did he have any 'outdoor' experience at all? If not, it can be hard to think of what are some very obvious (in hindsight) strategies.
And my last question, not for the wife, but with all his 'gadgetness', why didn't he have a handheld or car GPS ?????
