    you'd think he would have been more help staying with her. dry warm or whatever
    who knows
    and another couple were headed for trouble same time, same place. but lucky enough to get cell phone call out
    could say both were dumb decisions, then you don't know what you don't know
    Doesnt seen right that he made the hut that night but didnt/could radio for help till next morning? It is only a stuff article tho.
    I dont recall if that hut has a radio in it I have only stopped in to cook a feed for lunch but it is a very popular hut and in peak season always has "Honorary hut wardens" so may well have a permanent radio.
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.
