Couple Survives Three Days Stuck In Snow On Girl Scout Cookies, Peanuts PLACER COUNTY, Calif. - A California couple missing since Monday was found Wednesday afternoon in their car, which had gotten stuck in snow, Fox40.com reports. Mark Schroeder and Janette DeGrace of Sacramento, California were out sightseeing in Placer County, California when they traveled down a remote road that had not been plowed and their car got stuck in snow. A friend says Schroeder hiked about six miles in two-foot deep snow to find cell phone reception, with his cell phone almost dead and no charger. Miraculously, he was able to get to high enough ground to call 911 successfully. The couple was rescued soon after. The couple survived by turning on their car every 30 minutes for warmth. They rationed out peanuts and Girl Scout cookies and melted snow for drinking water. Searchers say it was difficult to find the couple because they were searching in the wrong area. The couple did not tell friends or family where they were going. Schroeder is being treated for minor frostbite. DeGrace has a medical condition that, rescuers say, would have killed her if they stayed stuck a day longer. Friends say being reunited with the duo was "surreal," as they had thought the couple was dead. Click here for more on this story from Fox40.com.
