The same thing could have happened to me or any number of hunters/fisherman from here and could have survived a week or more up there fairly easily. <<<<<
You keep saying this, are you not aware that HE HAD SURVIVED FOR A WEEK before he left the vehicle? And probably a few more days after that? By your logic, he must have done pretty well to have at least survived for the same period of time as the "any number of hunters/fishermen from here" that you cite.
As for the woman coordinating Emergency Services, it is reasonable to expect that she would triage the available info and have an important clue coming from a local with intimate knowledge of the area checked further. I've coordinated emergencies of a different nature, and those are exactly the types of tips that one wants; locals who have seen something they know to be out of the ordinary.
Hi Mjaye,
We have all been trying to explain to Bray how important it is to read the fine print. He reads what he wants and then begins to spew his outrageous responses.
Once again he missed it...they were out there almost two weeks with an infant...btw.
