I dunno. It's September but maybe? Southern Colorado wouldn't have those kind of temps this time of year, I wouldn't think. It is a weird story. | |||

Pretty bizarre. Article says they were found after a 6 day search that was begun 3 days after loss of contact. So it is possible they were out there 9 days. All of their gear reported still in the vehicle. Maybe they went out on a day scouting hike, got lost and never made it back. Dying of exposure and lack of food and water. Maybe the two guys who claimed to talk to them had something to do with it. Were their guns and binos found with the bodies? We're gonna need cause and time of death from the medical examiner.

They said severe weather had moved in. If you get wet, and it’s windy, it doesn’t need to be super cold to cause hypothermia. There is more to this than the story says. | |||

"Severe weather moved in over the weekend, raising concerns about their survival in the rugged area." - from the OP article. I bet they died of hypothermia after getting lost. Gets cold in those mountains at night this time of year. | |||

We’ve had lows in the 40s here in the Denver area so it’s not unusual for the higher elevations to get well below freezing this time of year. GMU81 is very diverse in regard to terrain and elevation so depending on where they were in 81, could easily be exposure that killed them. | |||

You can die of hypothermia in sixty degree weather, especially if you get wet or are exposed to it for long. | |||

Wouldn't be the first time wetness combined with high winds produced fatal hypothermia. When the horse has been eliminated, human life may be extended an average of five or more years. James R. Doolitle I think they've been misunderstood. Timothy Tredwell | |||

What "more to it" do you think there is? Give me a home where the buffalo roam and I'll show you a house full of buffalo shit. | |||

Got caught in thunderstorm near Kamas Lake one year, two miles from the truck. I was so happy to see hail, meant we would not get soaked. TomP Our country, right or wrong. When right, to be kept right, when wrong to be put right. Carl Schurz (1829 - 1906) | |||

As I recall, the news report said their backpacks and other gear was still in their vehicle. ************* “Those who control the present, control the past and those who control the past control the future.” George Orwell, 1984 https://www.google.com/search?...sclient=gws-wiz-serp Degenerate 1:1 1 Then Trump said, "Let Us re-make a Nation in MY Image, after My likeness, to rule over everything in the Nation, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it".
