Gary,

Considering the conditions. That is possibly what they will have to do. It wouldn't be the first time.

"More than 130 people have died climbing Mount Hood since records have been kept. One of the worst climbing accidents occurred in 1986, when seven teenagers and two school teachers froze to death while attempting to retreat from a storm."

The "86 rescue was when Gene threatened to throw Gumbel off of the mountain.
