fog
After making your last camp in the upper plateaus of Auspiya on the night of January 31st, you will encounter an interesting surprise after a hot breakfast. This surprising natural phenomenon should have been the answer to that important 65-year-old question. (Why was the tent set up on the slope?)
A huge fog settled over the entire valley of Auspiya and Lozva, hiding the pass from your view.
You tried but couldn't find the route correctly. You returned by following your ski slopes in the dense fog that lasted for days and visibility dropped to 5 meters.
What would you do in this situation?
The only way to move forward without getting lost in the dense fog is to ascend in the direction of your compass (always ascend).
The tent was set up on the slope before dark. Visibility at altitude is 15-20 meters. They hoped that if they could survive the night with limited wood, the fog would clear by morning. A sound evaluation could not be made regarding the place where the tent would be erected. In the evening, a snow mass hit the tent within the framework of fog, cold weather, wet clothes and cold bodies. When I examine the symmetrical fractures of Zolo and Lyutmila, I see that neither blows with a blunt object nor the butt of the rifle could cause symmetrical vertical damage. At the first blow, 3 or 4 bones are broken, and at the next blow, expect non-symmetrical fractures, bruises and bruises on the muscles and skin on the right or left side of the first fractures. The ideal environment to perform this ribcage crunch is the crushing and squeezing of the massive mass of a silky snowball.
They had no idea how close the forest would be when they emerged from the collapsed tent. How far down the hill you camp or how far from the forest you are. Assuming it was 100-200 meters, they started to go down. Under normal circumstances, the injured are expected not to be moved and first aid is given when medical teams arrive. However, there was no such luxury at the top of that mountain and the injured were carried by two people each. They didn't have the strength to want to be alone. They were dying while being moved. The forest that was thought to be nearby was actually 1 mile away.

A real jolt is better than a wrong balance.

Fog fits the puzzle pieces nicely. A good addition to our quest. I like it.
We don't have to say everything that comes into our head.
