MERLIN, Oregon (CNN) -- The body of a San Francisco man who had walked into the Oregon wilderness to summon help for his stranded family was found Wednesday in a steep ravine where he had left clues for searchers. Officials confirmed that James Kim, 35, an editor at the Web site CNET, had been found dead. Brian Anderson, Undersheriff of Josephine County, broke down and could not finish speaking as he announced that Kim's body was found at 3:03 p.m. ET. Searchers were attempting to remove Kim's body, and his family members have requested that their privacy be respected, officials said. Kim walked into the snowy Oregon mountains Saturday to find help for his wife and two young daughters. They were rescued by searchers on Monday. Clothing and bits of an Oregon map turned up Tuesday in a steep canyon that drains into the Rogue River. Searchers said they believed he was marking his trail for them. The clothing, which was wet, included two gray sweat shirts, a red T-shirt, a sock and a blue girl's skirt, said Lt. Gregg Hastings of the Oregon State Patrol. Family members said Kim carried the items when he left. "They were laid out in a well defined area, in a pattern," Hastings said. The pattern led officers to believe that "little signs are being left by James." Fog hampers search Searchers also found a pair of gray pants they believed belonged to Kim. The family said he was wearing the pants over blue jeans when he left. Teams were trying to resume their search Wednesday, but were hampered by fog which they hoped would lift by midday. Searchers planned to drop 18 numbered rescue packages containing clothing, emergency gear and other survival provisions into the area Wednesday in hopes that Kim could find one. The packages, clear plastic bags the size of pillows, also contained a note from his family. Searchers said the packages would be dropped in a 3-square-mile area where "hot spots" showed up two nights earlier in thermal imaging. "This is frustrating. We are so close," Anderson said. "There are people pouring their heart and soul into this. We are not going to quit until we find him." Temperatures at night in the search area have been dipping below freezing in lower elevations. The weather is expected to deteriorate by Friday. Dramatic rescue on Monday Kim's wife, Kati, and two daughters were rescued at their car, stuck in the snow on a remote road. When he left the car Saturday, James Kim went about two miles along the road, and then headed down into the drainage area, said Lt. Gregg Hastings of the Oregon State Police. About 100 rescue workers and four helicopters were searching for Kim, following his footprints down a drainage called Big Windy Creek that leads to the Rogue River. Anderson said he does not know why Kim went into the drainage area. "I hope to have the opportunity to ask why he did that," he said. Kim, a senior editor for the technology media company CNET Networks Inc., had two lighters and was wearing tennis shoes, pants and a heavy coat, but no hat, Anderson said. He would likely be within about five miles of the car, he said. The Kims had been missing since November 25, when they left Portland and headed home after a holiday trip to the Pacific Northwest. Kati Kim told officers they were traveling south from Portland on Interstate 5 and missed the turnoff to a state highway, Oregon 42, that leads through the Coast Range to Gold Beach, where they planned to stay at a resort. Questions about map Officers said the couple used a map to choose the road they were on. "They got the map out -- a regular highway map -- that showed the route," Anderson said. However, it wasn't clear whose map the couple used. The 2005-2007 state highway map distributed by the Oregon Department of Transportation has a warning in red print, inside a red box: "This route closed in winter." A Rand-McNally map did not have a similar warning. On Monday, searchers in a private helicopter hired by the family spotted Kati Kim, 30, and daughters Penelope, 4, and Sabine, 7 months. They were released from a hospital in Grants Pass on Tuesday. After leaving Portland on Interstate 5, search leaders said, the couple missed a turnoff that leads to the coast and took a wrong turn on a twisty mountain road they chose as an alternative. Stuck, they used their car heater until they ran out of gas then burned tires to stay warm and attract attention. With only a few jars of baby food and limited supplies, Kati Kim nursed her children. The area's complicated road network is commonly used by whitewater rafters on the Rogue River or as a shortcut to the coast in the summer, but it is not plowed in the winter. Copyright 2006 CNN.

Today, before the guy turned up dead, Limbaugh went on a rant about the efforts to drop food and supplies to the guy. He said a real man wouldn't need such a thing and implied that his guy was some sort of weakling. I'm wondering if we are going to see another Michael J Fox moment here.

tragic bump (and screw Limbaugh)
"The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer." This 'sissy fag' limbaugh would have stayed with the car and ordered his wife and kids to search out for help had he been in that situation. This common crowd, is much too loud.
Badeye has been demonizing the dead guy over on LP. He's saying things like "If you are stupid then you have to be tough". I wonder if he is running interference for Limbaugh here.

his job is anything he can do to distract the listening bots from the actual goings on

Hey, the reputation of one of the GOP's main propaganda outlets is at stake here. Shielding Limbaugh from the consequences of his actions certainly justifies trashing the reputation of some innocent but inconvenient little person.
"There are some people, and I'm one of them, that believe George Bush was placed where he is by the Lord. I don't care how he governs, I will support him. I'm a Republican through and through."
Well then, Badbot is in a world of hurt then ("If you are stupid then you have to be tough"). If he thinks driving around in a "leased" hummer makes one tough then his days are numbered, indeed. /chuckle
This common crowd, is much too loud.
I wonder if Limbaugh's ratings have continued to drop.
Katrina was America's Chernobyl.
Badeye says he constantly listens to Limbaugh when his show is on. Did he pick up this line of thought from Limbaugh?
Katrina was America's Chernobyl.
Amen ... I'm glad they found the wife and kids alive. This is one of those freak tragedies that is an unbelieveable nightmare you think only happens in movies, or to other people. I can't imagine the thoughts that must have run through all of their minds.

Well isn't that calling the kettle black. When was the last time Limbaugh was out in the wilderness? NEVER? More likely. James Kim died like a real man, on his feet. Limbaugh is a fat slime who is taking up too much space in the world.
Somewhat harsh, no? The man has a cyst on his ass the size of a watermelon and is stone-cold deaf, related to drug abuse. Have you no conservative, compassion? Or is it compassionate conservative? Anyway….
I have no compassion for Limbaugh or his ilk. He exists to turn people away from the truth.
I want Limbaugh's head on a pike. (I should have put sarcasm tags on my post)
Were I to have the opportunity to meet BAdLie in person, he would be terribly sorry we met. Both him and Limbaugh can go to hell and take the traitor Chimpster with them. [I know you're monitoring my posts GoldiLicks. Have you succeeded in getting me on the nofly list yet?]

I guess Limbaugh wouldve survived that pansy POS. then again he couldve lived on the fat of the Limbaugh for quite sometime.. the jerk.
Does screwing hookers poolside at a Domincan resort on his last Viagra fueled sex tour count as the "wilderness?" PS, I will be charitable and assume the Domincan hookers were at least female and of legal age.
