Missing backpackers found in Alaska

I hate to say it, but that thought crossed my mind!

They get lost by a river, so what do they do, but leave the open area and a water supply no less with fish in in it, and go off through thick brush where they can't be spotted from the air. And to read the story I saw, they "rationed" thier one day supply of peanut butter sandwiches for 6 days?

Down to thier last granola bar?

The whole thing is too stupid to be believed. I say charge them for at least the cost of the chopper fuel.

I think theres more here than is let on.

LOL, they probably had a lot more food than they led on as well. Two sandwiches and a granola bar....

....seems like something they would have eaten during the first couple of hours before they "knew" they were "lost."

And to add on, even the mother of a donkey knows that a compass points North, East, South, and West. They had a compass, they said they kept their cool, so why didin't they head east or south to find people? I'm still keeping my theory of the un-happy, un-wed sister ;).
