I read this over on the Jeep board and thought I'd post it here.
It's a tragic reminder in the value of always being prepared, and never wheeling alone.

In a nutshell, two tourists took a rented Wrangler up into the mountain in Utah. After getting stuck and living on melted snow and Skittles for 3 days, they tried to hoof it out on foot. The girlfriend couldn't make any farther, and told the b/f to save himself. He found help within a few hours, but she was dead when they found her.
With a little common sense, this never would have happened.
NEVER Wheel alone.
ALWAYS tell someone where you are going.
ALWAYS be prepared for the terrain and weather conditions.
