Why, those two men are taking a quick breather to recover from the exertion of climbing up that rocky, icy mountainside, of course. What else could they possibly be doing?
(I haven’t read any Biggles but I’m enjoying your reviews an awful lot!)
To be fair, I genuinely can't work out if they're on an icy mountainside -- possibly looking at an avalanche -- or on a tiny rock protruding from crashing waves.

They stripped because they're suffering from hypothermia. Like the bodies of the climbing party in the Dyatlov Pass Incident.
