The Donner Party - One Wrong Turn (Part 2)

The Donner Party gaze upon a path whose crossing grows less likely with each passing day. 

Death by cold or slow starvation is now - very much - a looming reality. 

Less than three miles from the summit, two frightening options become apparent:

• Abandon your remaining supplies and brave the grueling 10 day snow-laden trek across the mountains… 

OR

• Choose to retreat and wait out for a clearing in the weather. 

Neither, encourage optimism.
