With all I have read over the last couple of days on this forum, from the expert climbers, These guys were top notch and knew what they were doing. In their notes they stated their escape route was the South side. In putting all this together they summited and are on the south side. Remember with all the climbs these guys have made they have the expertise to survive hood. We will see them alive to hear there stories and know exactly what transpired. Keep the faith and continue to pray.
