[quote=Anonymous]This reminds me of the hunt for the [url=https://www.otherhand.org/home-page/search-and-rescue/the-hunt-for-the-death-valley-germans/] Death Valley Germans[/url]. Each small wrong choice led them further toward their death.

I think part of what makes it so compelling is how relatable it is. I can remember hiking with a baby in a Kelty. My husband can remember hiking with a dog that was a bit too old for the mileage and then having to carry the dog out. I can recall times when I didn't pack enough diapers or snacks for a trip to the zoo. I've put in the wrong address on Waze and ended up at the address that ended in Road instead of Lane. We've been a little too overconfident before. We've spazzed out and made dumb choices before and ruined an outing because we didn't factor in where we'd eat or if we had enough gas. We've argued and not been the best team in figuring out how to deal with a mini-crisis. Cell phone dead, forgot to download the alltrails map, no cell service, didn't eat enough breakfast first, dog refuses to move, baby looks lethargic...etc etc. I personally can see how, within just a few decisions or situations, heat stroke for a dog, a dad, a baby, and/or a mom could kill all four of them.[/quote]
