Here's another link that tells more of the story. 
http://outside.away.com/outside/news/20031118_1.html Apparently he wasn't 
able to get himself out (river froze, snow so deep the rangers couldn't get 
to him) and waited as long as he reasonably could. If I were to fault him 
it would be on being unprepared for winter conditions. Coming from somewhat 
South, and lower elevation, he probably did not realize how early winter 
comes to the Adirondacks.
