Jason Pede was rescued Sunday morning after his vehicle ran out of gas and he walked seven miles to a road, signaling for help with a flashlight.

Pede, of Chesterton, Ind., says a "local" told him about a shortcut to Aspen and that‘s how he became stranded somewhere in the Rio Grande National Forest in snow that went above the hood of his Lincoln Navigator.
