If I'm correct, it's 2.5 miles from the home to the "forest service gate" and the start of the Savage-Lundy Trail. You can see the switchbacks on the map. Sheriff said the family was located 1.5 miles from their vehicle.They are closer than you think, it is a loop including Hite Cove Trail, Hite Mines Rd, and Highway 140 (Yosemite Highway). The Hite Cove Trail ends and turns into Hite Mines road which has the switchbacks that the family was found by (see screenshot below). Hite Mines Rd leads right to the Cedar Lodge in El Portal.
