* DefrostingIceQueen: Allegedly somewhat zig-zagged by Monique as Skip claimed in CanadaEh above. With Peter, however, she seemed mildly surly from the moment they met, but has gradually come to respect him to where she even kisses him at the end.

* JerkassHasAPoint: One of the characters initially argues against sending up a rescue team, claiming that it is foolish to risk six lives to save three. [[spoiler:Ultimately, the rescue team lose four members and only succeed in rescuing one of the trapped climbers, making his point very valid.]]

** Vaughn argues that Tom is beyond saving and he and Annie should conserve their resources for himself. He's obviously selfish, as shown by how he [[spoiler:kills Tom by injecting him with air]], and probably wouldn't have been so self-sacrificing if their positions has been reversed, but he has a point.

-->'''Wick:''' Before we get started, let's agree on one thing; this is not one of those "climbing democracies". On a rescue mission, we don't vote, we don't question, we don't argue, you listen and do exactly as I say.

* DownerBeginning: The opening climb ends with Peter having to cut the rope they're climbing with, killing his father to save himself and his sister.



* HateSink: [[spoiler:Vaughn exists for someone the audience can despise. Not only is he responsible for more than a few deaths through his incompetence, but he's willing to murder people to save his own skin]].



* TheMentor: Montgomery Wick. [[spoiler:Subverted. He's the older and more experienced member of the team and this comes in handy for the sake of making it JustInTime to the accident site, but it's showcased from the very first second that he's there for very ulterior motives.]]
