When traveling in the boonies in the winter:
1. Always have at least a 3/4 tank of gas. Allows for idle time during delays and helps with traction.
2. Know where you are going.
3. Have someone who knows your route and schedule.
There are probably about a dozen other things like a shovel, sand/salt and other stuff that you can find at the AAA site.
I know it is easy to armchair quarterback this now, but this appears to have been a preventable incident.
