I feel for the incident commander. I was involved in SAR for a while and ran a few incidents, both real and Mock. It is very easy to become overwhelmed. You have to keep your head when all about are losing thiers.
This is something she is going have to live with for a long time. I wouldnt be too quick to comdemn her unless you were put in simular positions.

I'm gonna add my two cents worth regarding Mr Kim and the current search underway on Mount Hood;
It seems like more and more people are relying on cell phones to get themselves out of emergencies.
News: usually cell phones do not work very well out in the woods.(Mr. Kims cell call was picked up at a cell site in Roseburg Oregon, a good 60 miles from his actual location)
If any of these lost people had a real commercial 2-way radio or Amateur (ham radio), the odds are that their pleas for help would be received and the transmitters could be easily tracked down.
