It seems right to me to give opinions - such and different ones, since we can all learn something from this. Of course every story really has two sides, but one takes some objective view. My opinion is that the girls acted wrongly. Already the decision for such a 'feat', considering inexperience in winter conditions, was wrong. I myself learned a lot from my mistakes, I hope you two did too. Praise to the guys for selflessness and good will, and don't despair about helping needy candidates in the future; gratitude pays off sooner or later.
