Great details on the case. What really stands out, though, is the power of individuals acting in their own best interests who have detailed knowledge of their particular field. The lodge owner, the cell phone engineer, the helicopter pilot, the Kim's sister...the list goes on and on.

It really shows that if your family member is the one at risk you can't just rely on the authorities to conduct the investigation. Without the involvement of private citizens it's likely the Kims still wouldn't be found.

Thank God there are still good people in the world!

I was struck by that too. I think those people out west have this kind of character,,an independent, taking action, doing the right thing and not waiting for someone to "help". It is admirable.
