I've experienced blizzards >24 hours when you did not go far outside your front door, seeing virtually nothing for hours at a time in front of you, and deep snow gave no landmarks. I have a friend who died west of Boulder, having done so (though she may have had a heart attack--no autopsy was done).

So, yeah, that fog would certainly feel isolating.
