They did n't get to see their friends one last time after they died on the mountain .They did n't reach work in time .They did n't reach the top .They did n't reach even the middle of the mountain .
Why was the narrator so upset ?
Around 10 am , we packed our tent and headed down . We did n't make it to the summit , I was disappointed , but it was an amazing experience and I felt we have made the right decision . As the saying goes - " The mountain will always be there . " .
