A series of mistakes/poor luck

1. too many people
2. too many of them inexperienced or unprepared
3. hubris on the part of guide services and clients
4. decision making being impaired by altitude and fatigue
5. bad weather conditions which can change rapidly

All of these factors can compound making a bad situation quickly become a deadly one.
