The word local is superfluious in the above. If you are going to go wandering in the "wilderness" at least watch an episode or two of Survivorman! Come on, while this is truly tragic I have a bit of difficulty mustering any real sympathy for people who are so clueless when faced with an emergancy survival situation.
Is this possibly a Darwin Award nominee situation? Methinks it just may be.
