The Kims' friends, many in the technology and entertainment industries, raised public awareness of the disappearance and requested help finding the family.
They were only successfully located because a signal transmitted from the family's cell phone had been picked up by a cellular tower.[7] The signal was emitted when the Kim family's cell phone received a text message.[8] Authorities credit an employee of Oregon cell provider Edge Wireless with creating computer models to triangulate the phone location.[9]
Autopsy results released the next day revealed that Kim had died due to exposure to hypothermia and that his body had suffered no incapacitating physical injuries. Though no definite time of death could be established, the Deputy State Medical Examiner who performed the autopsy guessed that Kim had died roughly two days after leaving the vehicle
He traveled a total of approximately 16 miles looking for help, 10.5 miles on the main road and the other 5.5 miles in the treacherous Big Windy Creek canyon.[18] [4] He was ultimately found roughly four miles from his vehicle as the crow flies, and about one mile from Black Bar Lodge, but the last 1/2 mile of Big Windy Creek (leading to the Rogue River) was impassable even for a search and rescue team. The boating outpost, which was vacant at the time, was stocked with food items.[19][20]
Map and route controversy
The Kim tragedy produced rumors that the Kims had used online mapping to find their route.[22] However, later reports derived from police interviews with Kati Kim indicate that the Kims did not consult their laptop computers, but used a paper road map.[23] According to the Oregon State Police, the map they used was issued by the state of Oregon.[24]
During the hunt for the Kims, a number of computer users tested programs such as Google Maps and MapQuest to map the shortest route between the two towns. The programs reportedly listed Bear Camp Road, where the Kims got stuck, as the most efficient shortcut. The online mapping programs have apparently changed. As of December 7, 2006, maps indicate the drive along Interstate 5 and Oregon State Route 42 to U.S. Highway 101 as the preferred route between Roseburg and Gold Beach. Google Maps does recommend Bear Camp Road, however, as the route between Grants Pass and Gold Beach.
Bear Camp Road is rarely used even by local residents due to its difficult terrain and often inclement weather.[25] Furthermore, there are three yellow road signs that state: "Bear Camp Rd. May be blocked by snowdrifts" (see image on right).

However, the road on which the Kims got stuck was an offshoot of Bear Creek Rd. that was supposed to be locked by the Bureau of Land Management during the winter. BLM spokeswoman Patty Burel said, "It's supposed to be locked so people don't make that mistake." An investigation revealed that a vandal had cut the lock.[26]
