You can't make this shit up....The 59-year-old and 37-year-old appear to have died from exposure, the Skamania County Sheriffs Office said via Facebook. The weather and the mens lack of preparedness led the office to draw that conclusion, it said.

Not saying they wrre drinking, but going sasquach hunting on xmas eve has the hallmarks of "hold my beer and watch this"......
Anyway, drinking can make you not feel as cold as you should and could definately help get them lost in the woods at night.

Yeah, I'm assuming overconsumption of alcohol was involved.
