A Taiwanese hiker was rescued in the Himalayas after spending seven weeks lost. His partner was kill three days before rescue. A major snowstorm hit while they were on a trail and they made the smart and wise decision not to turn back or set up camp until it passes, but rather chug on. Once the blizzard passed and they realized they were thoroughly fucked they lived off of salt and water.
