They missed the highway turn off from I-5 to Hwy 101 and tried to take another route that also went over to the 101. They didn't know that route is a mountain pass typically closed for the winter and they got stuck in a remote area trying to turn around.
What really sucks is had they made that decision five or 10 miles earlier they would probably be home safe and we would not know who the Kim family is.

I had the feeling this would happen. This guy did not seem like the outdoors type. I learned this lesson a long time ago. Stay with the vessel.
It took great courage to try to get help but it was the wrong decision. He should have stayed with his family and he would be ok today. At least if they never were to get rescued the would perish together.
I know it is easy to say after the fact. But if ever faced with a similar situation stay with your vessel.

Really horrible. I go to Cnet.com all the time. I love gadgets and like hearing their reviews. So I've seen video clips of James Kim all the time reviewing audio products. He seemed like a nice guy who did a great job reviewing products.
Sad to hear this happened to him and he was only 35.

There was his path. I hate to say it but he did some pretty stupid things. The biggest mistake was leaving the car and the second biggest would probably be to leave the road to venture off onto some path. I don't understand how you have two lighters and are in a forest area and still not start a fire. They burned all their tires so they could have dried some wood off during the tire fires and kept the fire going.

Wait a moment so if he would of went the opposite way he would of made it to the Black Lodge Bar correct? And would still be alive as well.
Wow this sucks.. Been all over the news here..
