概要
The image that circulated through climbing forums was a single ice axe head planted in snow sixty meters above where anyone last saw Alan Jensen alive - no shaft, no climber, and an unused sleeping bag still sealed at high camp. How did a broken tool, a sealed sleeping bag, and a burned survival fire become the clues that rewrote the reconstruction of his final night?
In this episode, we lay out the sequence of events and the concrete evidence recovered from the climb to show what happened on October 15th and why keeping that axe head mattered; what do those details tell us about the choices Jensen made in the storm and the night he spent below minus thirty Celsius?
