[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sure they had some sense of comfort because they were with experienced guides. I am really curious to hear what their logic was and why they left the hut to go out in the storm. Even if they ran out of food it didn't seem worth the risk. You can last a long time without food so not really a dire situation. [/quote] If I understand correctly, 2 from the group of moms survived, as well as 1 guide. So those questions will be answered at some point. My guess is that it's a mix of things - overestimating their ability, relying on the guide, wanting to get home and back to their families / jobs, group pressure, misunderstanding what areas were prone to avalanche, etc. [/quote]
