What images are presented in the text?

In the text “Touching The Void” by Joe Simpson, images were presented in the text which gives us evidence that it was a cold night due to him having blackened fingertips which is related to frost bite and not being able to fiddle with the small keys to the petrol stove which leads onto the fact that he must be camping due to the image given because he has a petrol stove to cook on. It gives a image of them being tourist or visitors due to one of them having to renew there visa. The image voracious appetite gives is that he is starving which means they have not ate in a while which could mean they have got in trouble or something has gone wrong before because they have not, had time to eat or have not found a place to rest or sit down it also arrises a picture that he could possibly be injured due to having a loss of appetite and not wanting to eat. In the text they describe that they gazed over at the icy white sweep of Sarapo which means there must be landscapes around them or there on a mountain or a hill to be able to see it clearly and that Sarapo must be a place because it has a capital letter in the text.
