Two sisters and a teenage son moved to a Colorado campsite last July, living off canned food. They had wanted to take a break from a world that distressed them, a local coroner said.
The fact that a hiker found one and the other two weren’t found until the next day makes me think that one left to try and get help, froze to death, and the other 2 died waiting.
Apparently this was during winter. If they got hit by bad weather unprepared, they might not have had any options left once they realized they were fucked.
…the whole family?
Like, one didn’t die and the rest of them didn’t go “hmm this isn’t a good idea…”???
Looks like it was probably from hypothermia or malnourishment or a bit of both. They could have died the same night, very sad.
