Yikes. It will be interesting to see what the cause of death is determined to be.

Couldnt pull the link up on my computer but the article I read said the three were trying to stay out camping all winter and the cause of death was likely exposure.

If this is true, I would bet every dollar to my name that these are white people.

All 3 from exposure? Maybe. All three wouldn’t die at same time. Odd because if one was struggling, someone would try to get help. Maybe not but that’s my guess.

Three Decomposed Bodies Found in Colorado Campsite (Published 2023)

Law enforcement officials said the campers might have been there since last year.

Michael Barnes, the Gunnison County coroner, wrote in an email that the three individuals appeared to have begun “long term camping” at a location near Gold Creek Campground in western Colorado in July of 2022. They attempted to stay through the winter, he said, and might have been trying to live there permanently.

“Preliminarily, I suspect the three died of malnutrition and/or exposure sometime during the winter,”

Natural selection then maybe? Handled by nature?

I romped around a few miles from there this past fall, not a place I would have tried to spend the winter.

Red states call people like that "homeless"
Mountain House chili mac will probably turn out to be the culprit. You mix that with some street drugs and you get a recipe for disaster.

Jesus… There’s dumb, and then there’s “relying on YouTube to survive in the mountains in winter” dumb. I have no sympathy for the adults (two sisters), the kid was blameless in this, though.
