Leaving your shoes outside the tent? I wouldn’t do that on a dry summer day.
Yes, definitely a rookie mistake. I’m sure they were tired, and just didn’t give it a second thought. Hopefully they’ve learned some valuable lessons about backpacking, and will take a lot more care if they ever decide there will be a “next time.”
I do hope they are invoiced for rescue efforts and receive large punitive fines. Fucking morons.
