   It is not a dead end road. His fatal error was going off a major highway   
   in the winter.   
      
   [They passed signs warning Bear Camp Road may be blocked by snow, but   
   kept going. At times James had to stick his head out the window to see   
   through the falling snow, said Hastings.

   road to Agness and descending into a confusing warren of logging roads.]
