Buying Supplies
Underwood intended to run a supermarket run every one or two weeks, but it was impossible for him to do so as the road was blocked by heavy snow. According to him, he is currently eating his way through his stock of rice, beans, and canned soup. He also came across cans of food left behind by previous individuals. “Some of it may have been expired, but when desperate times call for desperate measures … I hope these somewhat-expired baked beans don’t hurt me too bad,” Underwood said.

The nearest town away from him has about 20 residents, which is over nine miles away at the end of the mountain road. Underwood stated that he has been acquainted to a few people there who could drive halfway to him in case he needs help, but for them to actually reach him, he would have to hike his side of the half. Underwood speculated in a worst-case scenario that he could be reached by a helicopter, but he doesn’t anticipate things to get that severe.
