Last year, three days after Christmas, Jim and Jennifer Stolpa and their infant son were on their way from California to his grandmother's funeral in Idaho.
Jim and Jennifer Stolpa and their infant son Clayton are 500 miles from their home in Castro Valley, California, when they lose their way and are stranded in an endless wilderness of deep snow in northern Nevada, east of Cedarville, California.
Jim Stolpa was medically retired from the Army, which paid for his medical care and 80 percent of Jennifer's, and plans to return to school in San Lorenzo, Calif.
