Coordinates 40B7. Requesting immediate extraction. Roger that, Elias. We have your position. Help is on the way. Elias? Over here. Oh, thank God you found me.

He knows that he's a stronger person for what he's been through, and he's ready for whatever life brings his way. Ground insulation is critical, as the frozen earth will sap my body heat, even through a sleeping bag. I spent the night up there on that high ridge. These notes detail the snow conditions and my exact coordinates. You did well, son. Glad you made it. I feel a profound sense of gratitude for the life I have, and for the strength that saw me through the intense snow. Elias, you made it! We were so worried. I'm finally home. I missed you all so much. I'm laying down this moss for insulation. It's critical out here, the frozen earth will sap your body heat otherwise. Yeah, that's much better. Glad you made it, Elias. Barely. Here are the notes. I was right up there on the ridge. He slowly pans across the landscape. He spots a glint of metal in the distance and checks his compass, marking the heading with a determined look. Dispatch, this is Elias. I've made it safely to the cabin. Copy that, Elias. Good to hear your voice. We'll log your safe arrival. I can't believe we made it back to you. Oh, Elias, I knew you would. You're home. Right there, on that high ridge, is where I built my stone shelter. It taught me about the resilience of the human spirit. Wrapping the cloth around his hand, he ties it tight. He then applies some antiseptic from his survival kit. Ground insulation is critical, as the frozen earth will sap your body heat, even through a sleeping bag. That's the ridge where we spent the night. Here are the coordinates and notes on the conditions up there. Alright, thank you. You're safe now.
