Never said I was hardcore and never claimed to be...you came to your own conclusion on that one.

Quit being a dipshit yourself and think about everything you have been taught about cold weather travel.

Now take that info and apply it to an unknown quantity like traveling 600 miles then going off the highway up into the hills for snow.

Now think about the safety of your family.

Now what is your final decision?

Everyone is taught about winter travel in bad weather and what should be carried with and how to keep yourself and your family relativley safe. This guy was stupid and took the risks which resulted in him paying an ultimate price.

I am not "hardcore" as you like to say, but I have no sympathy for stupidity that almost costs your entire family it's life. Yeah it's a bummer he died, but it was bound to happen anyways so why should I feel bad for him especially the way it happened?
