Tragic End for Colorado Family Living Off the Grid: Malnutrition and Hypothermia

A 14-year-old boy, his mother, and his aunt were found dead in a remote campsite in the Colorado Rockies after attempting to live off the grid. Autopsy reports revealed that they died of malnutrition and hypothermia. The family had been missing since October 2022 and were discovered in July when a hiker found the boy's remains outside a tent. Evidence suggested that they struggled to survive, with empty food containers and survivalist guides scattered around the site. The campsite was located at a high elevation with harsh winter conditions. The family members were very thin and wearing multiple layers of clothes when found. They had disconnected from the modern world due to fears about the state of the world during the pandemic.
