I did not see it either. I had thought the story ended prematurely. Now it makes more sense.

Tough lady. I can't fault her for anything. I probably would have stopped and built a fire. But then I would have had people out looking for me at the time. She didn't. Situations differ. Going out in the mountains alone is one of the things that make life worth living.

I think she did ok under the circumstances.
