Sorry if your friend is missing and at risk. I have lost friends myself in the mountains. It's no fun.

I took a quick look at posted pictures of the climbers. The body recovered so far belongs to Luke Gullberg - who appears to be the oldest male and the strongest member of the team. It would make sense for him to try to descend in the storm to get help - if his friends were in danger. There is good reason to be concerned about the long-term endurance of his other two companions.

You can have the satisfaction of knowing that Mr Gullberg tried to do what was best to save his friends.
