Your ending

Polar Legend

You read the ice, the weather and the bear, and brought the whole team home. The research station has named a hut after you. It has excellent ventilation.

  • Actually listened to the safety briefing
  • Apparently made of penguin

Best decision · #5

Light the stove and leave a vent open for fresh air

A bit of draught, a lot of warmth. The logbook says, in capitals, 'KEEP THE VENT OPEN'. You already had. Smug.

Fatal mistake · #4

Cross all together, fast

Halfway across, the whole slope cracks with a noise like a gunshot. You sprint. The snow slides away just behind the last sledge.
