No mention of firemaking equipment. Some hot drinks would have been nice, I'll bet. A metal cup with tinder, matches, Bic, firestarter, and some teabags, soup packet and cocoa mix inside it wouldn't have taken up all that much space.

And maybe a couple of cheap emergency blankets in their pockets

They were found Tuesday, probably after they didn't show up for work, and someone remembered that they mentioned going snowboarding somewhere.

I don't have much experience with blizzards. Do blizzards just come out of the blue? Most times we get snow, the weather people have some idea that it's coming. Listening to the radio before they got out of the car might have been a good idea.

They did okay. Not great. I would give them a 5.
