Leaving the car without adequate clothing (food or not, we know there is plenty of water), Stupid. LEAVING THE ROAD was the dumbest thing i think I have ever heard. From what I have heard, he followed this drainage thing for 8 miles southwest, then turned east which ended in some ravine less than a mile from the car. Call me crazy, but I think i would rather walk 8 miles on snow covered roads than up and down a mountain.

With the risk of sounding like an asshole, I just hope that when I die, I don't go out like that and be labeled an idiot. But yeah, its sad...he shouldn't have taken his pants off.
WOW, he didnt takes those pants off, they were extra ones he had packed. News stories are SO mixed up right now. You are an asshole.
