Those that stayed with the car survived - barely. The father set out for help after no rescue came after nearly a week. He died of exposure. I don't recall how long it took to find the survivors, but it was a *long* time and I don't think many thought they would be found alive. Things like that are not common, but having to wait for help is.
Oh yeah, the CNET journalist and his family in 2006 I believe, right? They were driving through a state or national park in Washington or Oregon and they went down a road that was supposed to be closed but wasn't for some reason and got stranded.
Yep, I believe that's the one.
