This turned out much different than he planned

I didn't read the article, but any chance this could be Alone Guy?

Impossible. Alone guy would have fabricated a helicopter from a downed snag and misc gear in his kit, and flown himself to safety.

I've trapped in that area before. In the wrong place and the wrong time the Lochsa and Clearwater can have gnarly cream cheese snow that makes it most efficient to crawl.

I am kind of taking it personally that all the photos of this event show relatively nice snow conditions. All the sled belts I burnt, all the undignified post holing, and I didn't even get a single lousy Instagram photo of me handsomely deploying an InReach.

Debris. He would’ve made a helicopter out of debris and flown himself out of there.

 

[ozyclint]

But he wouldn't have flown out until day 247.

 

[Travis907]

He’s the internet’s next influencer! Lol
He should of at least ditched his food and water before rescue arrived for a better story! What a piece of work!

 

[Marbles]

Wow. We should really ditch the free rescue model. Though, a private service bird and 20k bill is what he deserved.

This post may win Rokslide “post of the year.”

I used to live in a spot in Washington where SAR was pretty much activated all summer long, and every weekend during the winter. I guess that’s why is a a volunteer program or they be bankrupted by stupid people. They’d even rescue dogs the people drug up the mountain and wouldn’t come down.

 

[Rob5589]

Doesn't sound much different than the idiots I transport that call 911. The inability to care for oneself is strong in our society.

10 bucks says he uses an ebike to hunt and sits when he goes pee pee

20 bucks says he eats pizza with a fork and his Honda Ridgeline was parked at the trailhead
