Doug did a good job explaining basic preparation for a night (or three!) in a stranded vehicle. Whenever I go to the mountains I feel naked if not fully prepared and hope for the best if something happens. I take grief for it, but often 'save the day' for those not so prepared ('in the parking lot' as he said). I know that road they were stuck on and have (maybe) done such silly adventures... As he said, "we were JUST..." and disaster can follow at any time. Good work Doug!! Ken Greenwood
