l am going to start on the mountain climbers.
only the discussion here could posibly lead to finding the climbers.
looking at as a think tank.
What we know... [ul] [li]we have 4 climbers.[/li] [li]we have one climber who stayed home[/li] [li]we can asume this climbers are some what skilled to attempt such a climb during winter months.[/li][/ul]
conditions.... [ul] [li]heavey snow[/li] [li]heavey winds[/li] [li]large area to cover[/li][/ul]
time laps.... [ul] [li]7 days[/li] [li]Last heard from 5 days[/li][/ul]
Equipment [ul] [li]back pack[/li] [li]cell phone we can asume it has gps trackability.[/li][/ul]
I am asuming these guys are skilled in survival as well.
well we know that man has survived by far worse conditions with less amenities for thousands of years. as to weather or not these people have the skills is not know. but lets say for sake of argument they do.
If I were going to build a snow cave asuming they did, If they chose a geographical one finding them should be much easier.
[ul] [li]I would if I were going to build a snow cave I would want to do it in a place where I would have shelter from winds and snow and close to fuel for a fire. [/li] [li]this would make finding me more difficult but increase my chances of sruvival untill the storm passes.[/li] [li]We know that leantoos can provide tremendous amount of shelter from wind and snow. can be set up in a short amount of time in an alpine environment with basic survival tools. "hatchet" this will also be your sorse of fuel as well.[/li] [li]keeping your fire going is important. it provides heat, and on a clear day or short break in the weather will signle your location.[/li][/ul]
I have to stop here for the moment, Please continue at this point or any other points you think are nessisary to survive this front.
