I'm looking at this and I'm mad as hell. This is a stupid series of deep failures, right down the line. This person should absolutely be alive and well.

Those of us who go into wilderness accept a certain level of risk. We are out often out of communication with the world, and we act accordingly, and prepare for eventualities, and take our lumps if it goes wrong.

But the person in question was not lost in deep wilderness. If I understand correctly, she was fully connected to the Internet and emergency services and her family, and in a viable shelter. How in the hell did noone along that entire chain fail to give her the dirt simple information that would have kept her from dying from carbon monoxide poisoning?!

So yep, I'm pissed off about this. Such a waste, so preventable.
