The info I read on the Inyo SAR Instagram page is that this person was one of multiple folks who tried to use back roads to "get around" the Highway 395 closures due to the major winter storm. I wonder why they think the smaller roads have any chance of being passable if the major highway isn't. There were I think 11 groups who went around road closed signs on Benton Crossing Road in the same storm and caused over 180 human hours of work by SAR and other folks to extract them, and some of their vehicles are still out there. Crazy. OK I'll get off my soap box now.
