The story of James Kim tragic. Him and his family, on their way back from visiting family in Washington, became stranded in a remote part of the Oregon mountains. Two weeks after James Kim and his family became stranded in the climate Mountains, his body was found on Wednesday in a creek bed where he had succumbed to hypothermia. The Kim's tragedy could have been prevented if the logging roads that the Kims got lost on would have been shut down or effectively blocked. The Kims were not the first family to get lost on these logging roads. A spoksman for the the rescue group of Curry County said that others have died on the secluded roads the Kims were on. In March a family was rescued after being stranded in their RV for 17 days. Something needs to be done about this in order to prevent further tragedies.
