In a way this is a controlled environment in the sense that I have the opportunity to prepare myself in advanced. I will not always be that lucky. At least this way I can train myself psychologically not to be afraid and to deal with panic when faced with situations such as these.

My feeling would be to get the hell down below tree line, spend the night there and give her a fresh go in the morning light. Be prepared for an overnight stay. But what if one simply cannot descend and is forced to stay above tree line? Is it possible to survive the night in a bivy in a gale with enough warm gear or should the objective be to descend whatever the difficulty?
