I've no comment about the rescue or his preparations and actions, I wasn't there - so I can't make comment.
What I would say is I hope he's took some issues on board before going to Norway, ie, his evacuation plans and methods of communications when in country.
In February 2007, I was in Northern Norway leading an expedition, news reached us that in another region south of us on the Hardvanger 2 Brits died through exhaustion after being caught out on the plateau
Over breakfast I mentioned to one of our Sami guides, "I hear some guys losts there lives in the mountains recently", the giude said he'd not heard anything about it, then paused for moment, he then said to me " what country did they come from ? ", he then took time to explain to me that locals in Norway seldom die in their own mountains and more often then not it's foreigners that perish, hence his question.
I would like to mention here congratulaions to the Snowdon MR Team, and all rescue teams who put their lives on the line every time in truly awful conditions and hours of the night, well done.
