I guess, for me, I understand how people get lost and die on backcountry trails, hiking trips, that kind of thing. It just boggles my mind that someone could get so lost on a road, with a car, unless somehow their car got wrecked in a ditch, and was thus useless for helping them turn back down the way they came? I guess I don't know the details of that.

And yeah, for a gadget and technology man, it IS amazing (and sad) that Mr. Kim did not have any kind of GPS or map technology, I guess. I am still waiting to hear more from the wife, about how exactly they turned onto this road and decided to keep driving when it was obviously snowed in, unplowed, and probably a bad idea. Why not go back to I-5 (a major artery) and find a hotel for the night? So many questions.
