In the Traverse variant, can a rescued climber restart from the other side of the mountain?

Replies read the family rescue rule this way, and no designer ruling was found.

Yes, within the costs. A rescue applies only after the climber has died, and the climber loses its scoring progress and traverse tokens. The family rescue then lets it restart on any field below 6000 m, which can be on the other side.
