13．Daryl set out to watch an overnight sky-watching event on 18th November 2007．He lived on Bainbridge Island，Washington and left home to attend the event to be held 180miles to the Southeast of Trout Lake．He wanted to come back immediately in order not to miss the football game the next day．
As fate would have it，he never reached Trout Lake．He was stuck in a heavy autumn snowstorm．As he was driving along the forest service road，which was thankfully in good condition，he realized that snow was fast piling up．The tires of his jeep Cherokee sank into soft，deep snow 35miles from his destination．
Luckily，Daryl had filled his jeep with full gallon water and had kept a Wal-Mart sleeping bag．He had a jacket and some food for the night．He settled down in his jeep confident in his hope that someone would find him and save him the next day．
But，no one came and he continued to survive drinking very little water．He had to try hard to keep brushing off the snow on the roof and door of his jeep，or it would be impossible to be found．In order to do this，he slept and woke up in fits and starts （间歇地）．He knew that leaving his vehicle in search of help was not a good idea．He managed till day 8，after which he became completely dehydrated（脱水的）．Daryl had the presence of mind to fight his hopelessness and reach out for snow but knew that eating snow would lower body temperature after which the body had to spend more energy to keep itself warm．
He finally decided to go in search of water．He discovered water，drank to his heart's content and filled himself with renewed energy．It was not until 14days of struggle for survival that Daryl was discovered by a local snowmobile．Fortunately，he neither suffered from hypothermia or frostbite（体温过低或冻疮）even though he lost ten pounds．
Daryl's survival is amazing，He kept his brain active and continuously surveyed his environment，looking for solutions．Most importantly，he did not panic．
