A world class climber friend of mine died of a massive heart attack on an easy low mountain. They say he was dead before he hit the rocks. RIP He would have wanted it that way.

But the second of the old guys left his gear behind, presumeably to travel faster and lighter. Would a flashlight have spared him?
