The plane in which the members of a top Uruguayan rugby team were flying crashed into a mountain and was stranded 11,000 feet up on a glacier. With the prospect only of a slow death, and no rescue likely, Nando and one of his friends set off on an impossible journey, walking and climbing for ten days in search of help.
