"Death wasn't an option": Couple survives mountain blizzard

At more than 5,000 feet, it's the second highest mountain in New York State. In an interview you'll see only on "CBS This Morning," Michelle Miller talks to the student about how the couple stayed alive long enough for rescuers to find them.
