I recall a Google exec following Google maps in the winter in Oregon and it cost him and his family their lives. A good road in the summer ain’t necessarily so in the winter.

It was a CNET editor named James Kim. He missed a turn and took the wrong road, no mention of GPS leading him astray. His wife and kids survived.

There may have been GPS used, but I don't recall.

They were using GPS. There are now gps warnings and BLM, NFS signs all warning of the winter dangers of Bear Camp road.
