CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: GREAT OUTDOORS

Neal Karlinsky (subscription required) helicoptered over the "vast rugged terrain" of the Oregon mountains to recount the ordeal of the Kim family, snowbound in a stationwagon in the forest for nine days until mother and two daughters were rescued. The children, aged four years and seven months, were kept alive by the mother's breast milk. The father, 35-year-old James Kim, is missing.
