Whatever you do, don't forget your pepper jack cheese pasta! I'm glad she made it out ok, but the media reporting is lacking and propogates ignorance about wilderness survival. I really wish they would quote someone who knew a little about wilderness survival when giving an analysis as to why someone survived. Doug needs to set the media straight--maybe hold some media workshops or something.

She could've survived that long easily without eating anything. No one thought to mention how she obtained water or stayed warm while sleeping. I assume she obtained water from creeks and had a sleeping bag and fire starting device. These are the factors that ensured her survival, not her food. And, I wonder if she had a whistle and signal mirror, or was she just using futile yelling and waving?
