First snow cave, they spent a lot of time building, probably used a shovel, built very well, accommodated all 3 climbers.

Team will land on summit in helicopter. They plan to climb down from summit to the body, then retrieve it and haul it up to summit, where helicopter will bring it down.

Why then a second? Is it above or below the first? Perhaps an accident occurred and the survivor attempted to return to it and could not find it.
