Re: Two Tourists Frozen to Death in Russia

If one of them had a tent they would have survived.
It's fucking crazy, they're on motorized vehicles, they could have carried enough shit with them to have a right old knees up. Tents, barbecue, burgers, it would have been a lovely night in the cold with all that stuff.

Carry a jump bag... a just in case bag, just in case you need to survive shit....Especially going into the deep bush

Re: Two Tourists Frozen to Death in Russia

Even if I go camp in a campground, I still have emergency supplies, plus I always keep a permanent kit in my truck.
I’d rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it!

Have you ever been to Siberia in winter? If you have not, then you know nothing about what’s possible. I have been near there and it gets EXTREMELY cold! But I would never be crazy enough to actually venture there, even if there were “experts” leading the way.

Good that you pointed out it gets cold in Siberia in winter, I actually thought it was a tropical climate there.

That aside, I don't have to go there to know what it is like, do I ?
I already assumed the worst case scenario - that they could be trapped in blizzard like conditions and temperatures below minus 50 degrees Celsius, but my point still stands.

If you have the right equipment you can easily survive a night in those conditions. The reason they probably died is because they had nothing with them, in which case yes, obviously nobody can survive a night out there like that.

Can't be any worse than Alaska or Canada cold.. people snow mobile in the bush all day and sometimes night

Can't be colder than Antarctica
