Perhaps not. I think they were overconfident and maybe thought the storm would not get any worse. Or it would not turn into anything they could not handle. And surely there would be time to properly evacuate if the weather got worse?

When you look at all the pictures they took, they were very jubilant and carefree. With the exception of Zolotaryov, they were all young and thought they would live forever. I did at their age. And at 38 years old Zolotaryov had been through World War 2 and what could be worse than that?

I have camped out in storm and decided to stay with the Tent I had. If I thought that the weather was going to get worse to the point of me having to evacuate the Tent I would have left fully clothed and equipped.
