So much empty space up there, if they made some distance and ate a bullet it's possible they're never found. The bush up there won't kill you immediately but if they don't have any gear/supplies and don't know how to hunt, well.
I grew up in a small northern SK town, you could go straight north to the NWT border without crossing a road or seeing another person. Easily 500 square kms of nothing.
A friend's Dad committed suicide and they didn't find his body until 10 years later, he was only 1 km away from a road very close to town.
