Sad ending.  Glad the family doesn't have to wonder until spring or beyond. 
Economy failure = Too many people spending money they don't have on things they don't need to impress people they don't like.

He was only 100 to 150 yards from his truck.  Wearing only his shirt, pants and boots.  His coat, hat and backpack were about 50 yards from his body.  Hypothermia.  :(

Sounds like paradoxical undressing. Fairly common in freezing victims.

Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

 :yike: Sad yeah RIP. :'(
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter
