Going Off-Road
There is no way to get to the plane through this area. In order to get there, Philip has to travel off the beaten path, and there is a significant amount of snow. Because of this, he needs to exercise extreme caution because he cannot see what is hidden beneath the snow. As he makes his way over to the airplane, he shuffles his feet over the ground to get a better feel for the rocks. On the other hand, the darkness increased with each passing minute.
Camping
When the sun began to set, Philip had not even made it to the halfway point yet. He could see a small patch of level ground in the distance where he could pitch his tent, but he had to get there as quickly as possible. He arrived just in the nick of time and quickly set up his tent, but just as he was doing so, the wind began to pick up. Phillip climbed into his sleeping bag and made an effort to maintain his body temperature, but it was a challenge.
