Floe I. The coldest planet in the Federation. The Enterprise had been assigned to map and explore this planet to update the Starfleet charts. It was a fairly straightforward mission, if a bit dull. Scans had shown that there was no civilization to be found, though there were some native animals that were few and far between.
Away teams had been selected, each packed with enough gear and provisions to make sure they wouldn't freeze to death, and had been beamed down to pre-appointed areas of the planet. The captain didn't normally send multiple away teams at once, preferring to lead each and every one himself, but this time, they had a whole planet to cover, and this was the most efficient way to get things done.
Then the blizzard hit. Communication with the ship had been cut off, which meant they also couldn't communicate with any of the other away teams. This was not good.
