See book 'Finding Carla: The Story that Forever Changed Aviation Search and Rescue" by Ross Nixon. A very good book about a terrible story. The three passengers survived the crash in the mountains, but the pilot died a few days later trying to walk out in deep snow, and his wife and his step-daughter Carla, both injured but able to get water from a creek, slowly starved to death over about two months.
