Plus David Peterson from Vya! This week we talk about how Jim and Jennifer Stolpa survived being stranded in a snowstorm, and also kept their 5 month old alive! Baby Clayton survived also through an eight-day ordeal inside a cave in the Sierra-Nevada Mountains, during a winter, negative degree snowstorm.
Remember your tips to keep your car from getting stuck in the snow, don't plastic wrap your toes, and don't ever give up!
