On Red Mountain - Robin Brande

Lightning death. He’s dead. He died. That really happened.
Rafe’s body was starting to go cold. Aubrey’s was, too. Rain and hail had been lashing down on her for the past half hour, but all she could think about was doing CPR and rescue breathing because even if lightning stopped a heart it didn’t mean the person was dead.
She had eight years training and experience as a Wilderness First Responder. She knew things. She knew she might get his heart going again, but the respiratory system could still be down. She might have to do rescue breathing for an hour. He might still live. It was up to her.
But now she was starting to shake. She hadn’t done the rest of it right. It’s like a flight, her instructor had said. Oxygen masks drop, and you have to put yours on first. You have to make sure you save yourself before you can save anyone else.
Aubrey was shaking and she knew it was hypothermia. She hadn’t dug out her rain coat and rain pants when Rafe went down, she had gotten right to it, cold rain beating against her face and body, one, two, three, pumping his chest, chanting the song that the WFRs all knew to get the rhythm right, the one from Saturday Night Fever about stayin’ alive.
She checked the pulse again, but he was dead. She had to understand that. Her brain felt slow and weak. I’m going to die, it told her, I’m going to die of hypothermia, stop, save yourself, you’re shivering. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
Aubrey dragged her attention away from her husband’s face. He was cold and dead. They were alone on the high treeless ridge of Red Mountain. No one was around. They hadn’t seen any other backpackers for days. It was why they came here. Solitude was a feature, not a flaw.
Until now. Think, think. She had to take steps. There were things to do now that his heart had never restarted and the breathing never came. Things to do. Put on your rain gear. You’re soaked through. You’ll die up here.
Where was she? It had finally
