Hiker dies on wilderness-survival adventure

Survival hike or death march?

New Jersey man Dave Buschow died of thirst in a Utah desert while on a survival hike run by Boulder Outdoor Survival School, or "BOSS." With emergency water supplies available, and a natural water source just yards from where he succumbed to thirst, it's a very sad tale all 'round.

The dead man's family blames the company, the company blames the man's preparation techniques. Total bummer.
