The sun was beginning to disappear behind the nearby mountain. Philip’s heart sank as he knew he was lost. The group of climbers, who Philip had started out with, were nowhere to be seen. Philip shouted for help but it was hopeless. While there was still a little light, Philip tried to make himself a bed using leaves and twigs. The temperature, which was now close to zero degrees, could be extremely hazardous. If he couldn’t find a way to keep warm, he would be in serious danger. It was going to be a long night.
