11. they were looking for a way to get around a closed road using a Google map

The main highway was closed- what did they thinking small roads would be?
Driscoll said the main highway in the Canyon’s north rim, State Route 67, was closed due to the snow in the area, which is about 8,000 feet above sea level. The family, he said, was looking for an alternate road and found Forest Road 22 — one of the few available alternate routes.

“Google Maps shows there’s a way — but it’s impassable,” he said, adding. “This is a problem we’ve had numerous times.”

Yet even the route they took had large amounts of snow
Forest road sort of a hint there...
