Felix, Jeff and Aiden are sitting in silence in their hand-made snow cavern for some time. The snow didn't ease up so far, and it does not look like it plans to slow down any time soon.
Three of them shared coffee and tea from two backpacks, and granola bars as well. At least they were not hungry. But there were only few more snacks left, and they could not stay there much longer. Even if they endure hunger and melt snow for water, they were still worried about their girls. But the snowfall was relentless, and they didn't have any choice than to endure and wait for the nature to take its course.
"We don't have more than two hours of daylight left." Felix observed. They are high North, and the days are much shorter than nights.
"Should we go and try to find our way back?" Jeff suggested. He didn't like the possibility of spending the night outside, away from JoAnna.
