Hypothermia seems the most likely killer. Or perhaps an avalanche. Some have suggested local tribespeople murdered the hikers. A bloodthirsty yeti has been suggested. My favorite theory is that a strange wind whipping around the mountains created a maddening infrasound, a low-frequency noise that can cause people to lose their minds. Whatever it was, something killed nine ski hikers in at Dyatlov Pass in the Soviet Union’s northern Ural Mountains one night in early February 1959. Referred to ever since as the Dyatlov Pass Incident (the pass is named for Igor Dyatlov, leader of the expedition), the events of that night have remained a mystery for the past 60 years. But now the Russian government is reopening the case.
Researching the case is to dive down a rabbit hole of bizarre theories, from the paranormal to the extra-terrestrial.
At a quick read, it seems like a perfectly normal, though tragic expedition gone wrong. 10 college-aged skiers set out for a trek through the Sverdlovsk Oblast region of the Urals in late January 1959. All of the skiers were experienced in long-distance ski touring and were participating on this trip in part to earn certification for advanced ski touring and mountaineering. After a few days of trekking through the snow, they arrived at the pass and prepared for their climb. One of the skiers turned back after suffering health issues; the rest pressed on.
On February 1, the group began ascending toward the pass but became disoriented in a driving snowstorm and soon headed in the wrong direction. Realizing their mistake after a time, Dyatlov decided the group should make camp for the night where they were, though they were quite exposed. At some point that night, all nine hikers perished. To die at altitude in the winter is not particularly uncommon. But when the hikers failed to return, their relatives organized a rescue mission. What the search party found has baffled experts to this day.
Six days after setting out, the search team found the group’s tent. It was a bizarre site. The tent had been abandoned, and, strangely, was cut open from the inside with the inhabitants’ clothing and shoes left behind. As many as nine sets of footprints, some barefoot, some only in socks, one with only one shoe, led away from the tent as if the group had suddenly fled. A mile from the camp, at the edge of the forest beneath a tree, searchers found the bodies of Yuri Doroshenko and Yuri Krivonischenko wearing only underwear, next to the remains of a small campfire. Broken branches suggested the tree had been climbed by one of the hikers, maybe in an effort to spot something far away.

Soon after, investigators found the bodies of Rustem Slobodin, Zinaida Kolmogorova, and Dyatlov half buried under snow. It appeared that these hikers had been with the other two at the forest’s edge and died on their way back to the camp, and similarly, weren’t dressed for the weather.
It took another two months to find the bodies of the last four. These hikers died in a ravine even further into the forest. Once winter snows began to melt they were revealed at the bottom of the ravine. Unlike the rest of the group, these four were wearing winter clothing, though not necessarily their own. Even more strange, they had been killed apparently not by exposure to cold, but by extreme blunt force trauma that one investigator likened to the violence of a car crash. Lyudmila Dubinina was missing an eye and her tongue. Nikolai Thibeaux-Brignolles had massive skull trauma, the rest had suffered severe chest fractures, but they had no external injuries. It was as if they’d been crushed by severe pressure that left no marks on their skin.
It’s of no doubt that six of the group—those found with no clothing—died of hypothermia. But there’s little obvious explanation for why’d they flee a tent after cutting it open, then run a mile through the snow with no shoes. Paradoxical undressing, when hypothermia victims start to feel a burning sensation causing them to peel off their clothes would seem to be a possible explanation, but then the hikers were of a sound enough mind to start a small fire nearby to warm themselves. Not to mention climb high into a pine tree to get a better view of the camp.
Soviet authorities concluded the group had died from a “compelling natural force,” and, as was standard practice in the Soviet Union, the files were locked away, adding to an element of mystery.

In the years since theories about what happened to the group continue to multiply. The likelihood of an avalanche has mostly been ruled out, with the assumption that the group was far too experienced to camp in an avalanche zone, and that the mountain they slept under was unlikely to produce avalanche conditions anyway. Some suggested that the Mansi, indigenous people of the region, attacked the hikers, but there was no sign of struggle around the campsite, nor were there extra footprints. The Discovery Channel even sent a film crew to the area in 2014 for a special, Russian Yeti: The Killer Lives, in which the crew talked to locals who swore they’ve seen signs of the mythical beast in the area, and heard strange sounds the night of the killings.
Then there’s the conspiratorial.
Military weapons testing is a popular theory. There were reports of glowing orange spheres the night the group died, which some point to as evidence that the Soviet army was testing “parachute mines,” an explosive that detonates in the sky. Some suggest the hikers wandered into a testing ground and were shellshocked by the explosions, with some running from the tent, then freezing to death outside, with the rest tumbling to their deaths in the ravine. Low-intensity nuclear weapons testing has also been suggested. Some of the victims had unexplainable traces of radiation on their clothes.
For 60 years, speculation has run rampant. Dozens of theories have been floated, which, after a while, all start to seem plausible.

Yuri Yudin, the survivor, embraces Lyudmila Dubinina before he leaves the camp.
But finally, the Russian government is re-opening the case.
“Relatives, the media and the public still ask prosecutors to determine the truth and don’t hide their suspicions that something was hidden from them,” Alexander Kurennoi, Russia’s Prosecutor General said.
Authorities at the Sverdlovsk Oblast reportedly have a 400-page volume filled with materials related to the incident and will send investigators to the area in March. They plan to conduct forensic tests in an attempt to finally piece together what happened. So far, the only cause they’ve ruled out to explain the Dyatlov Pass incident is crime. Everything else related to a “compelling natural force” is on the table.
We covered the Dyatlov mystery in Adventure Journal 02. For a deeper dive and lots more pictures, pick it up here.
there’s a cool book about this called Dead Mountain. pretty crazy story
What happened to these nine kids please keep looking it had to of been a few not one could of killed all nine had to been more than 2 !!! Please help the Families find the truth of there children !!!
The most logical explanation is murder. Either one of the hikers or an outsider of the group killed them.
When the bodies were discovered a few of them showed physical trauma that could only be caused by a car, which is strange being that there aren’t any cars in that area.
Under no uncertain terms was this a natural phenomenon, these young people witnessed something that we run in fear from 1959 – 2020. Today and tomorrow. Collectively we will run in fear from this unknown phenomenon same today as before. We cannot address this reality it is an unspeakable reality it does more than shut down our senses collectively we are prisoners of it one thing we do have and that’s a picture of one of these creatures is it Yeti or Bigfoot it’s the same backyard has anyone remote viewed this incident I have I will tell you there was more than one of these beings these creatures that night and yes these young people rip their tents and ran into the freezing night the Unspeakable Terror the Unspeakable fear the unthinkable reality of all of this we do not need a middleman to paint false reality for all of us collectively besides no one knows winced this strange alien phenomenon arrives from elsewhere with natural endemic intentions again what is it.
I agree with you.
It was a bigfoot or a yeti.
You dont run in fear for nothing
I believe that there could of been yetis. Only half the cameras and diaries found. The government was trying to catch one.
Heard that someone saw fireballs in the sky though? And radiation on clothes?
I noticed that the story left out the fact that some of the bodies were burned, 2 had radiation poisoning. All that chaos but no other disturbance besides the 9 explorers. One had their eyes gouged out and no tounge. Some of the bodies aged where their skin was orange and grey hair…. I believe alien intervention… There is absolutely no logical explanation, this is one mystery that will remain one. Ssd and extremely macabre.
I looked everywhere but found no mention of burned bodies, none of the bodies had radiation poisoning but the clothing on one body did have small amounts of radiation. The bodies with orange and gray hair, that’s just what happens when a dead human body is left frozen in the snow for a while. I do not believe aliens were involved but I wouldn’t rule out the existence of a menk or yeti being involved.
There is definitely some pieces missing from the puzzle that the government is keeping from us. A kgb document about the incident was released to the public years later and in that document the investigation is said to have began on the 5th of February but people hadn’t noticed they were missing until the 12th of February and furthermore the first expedition to look for them only took place on the 26th. A full week before people knew they were missing the kgb were investigating the case.
who can say what the government is keeping from us
Sounds crazy but if you look through the literature and sightings reports world wide, often bigfoot sightings are coupled with reports of UFOs. So could that be the radiation? The entire situation is so creepy. Maybe a connection with the ball of fire witnessed???
I believe it was yeti,,that killed them
I don’t think that’s exactly what they said they said it was equal to what they would experience in a car wreak. I believe that we will never know what happened to these people tbe only way to ever know what happened would to have been there GOD i love a mystery do ypu believe the thang about the snowmen? i do
The facts are:
The killing agent was use to the extreme cold.
Something scared them so bad, they cut open their tent.
They were running for their lives.
Some were crushed to death.
Equipment not taken.
My conclusion: They were attacked by Yeti’s.
Ok great. But no footprints from yeti?
If the attackers used snow shoes, there would be no footprints.
First regarding terminology, what I mean by snow shoes:
Snow shoes are made of flexible branches of willow trees, and tied up with bast fibre (phloem), collected from under the bark of trees.
It is extremely strong fibre, you would not be able to tear it, and is used in Russia for centuries, to make and mend foot wear.
Snow shoes are attached to your normal shoes or boots, to increase the area on which your body weight is transferred. With snow shoes you can walk on fresh snow, without sinking in. There is only small disturbance of the snow, so even on firmed snow they do not leave proper foot prints. All what is left behind, are small scratches, these would be completely smoothed out by new snow fall and wind in 24 days between the attack and the discovery of the camp site.
I agree.
With peter.
There will be in future new books ,in Russia or in other countries about dyatlov pass mysteries?
My belief is that yes, they had been stalked by a Russian Menk, Dyatlof was warned by a mansi villager to NoT go there. And as one person also stated, they cut the tent in fear, and ran for their lives. Leaving gear, food, clothing, etc behind.. The crushing damage that was described as someone being hit by a car to these people, would take an enormous amount of force. A creature that is said to be 7-8 foot tall could easily have done such damage. I believe the Russian government knows a whole lot more than what’s been revealed. And the rest of the world will probably never find out the truth.
Could it be that they were all on LSD?
They were young adults and it was 1959. Perhaps they were all on the tent when they dropped the LSD. 1 guy leaves the tent because he is tripping so he starts messing with camera. The other campers get spooked by something and cut their way out of the tent. Eventually the hypothermia sets in on a few of them which causes the trip to become even more intense because hypothermia can also cause you to lose your mind. At that time those few people start attacking the others for whatever reason so they run downhill. Before the hallucinating, insane few can find the others who ran they succumb to the hypothermia.
Then the people that ran to the river start to get hypothermia also causing the guy who they tjink died last to lose it and injure the others & once he believes they are dead he heads back toward the tent. Before he can get there the hypothermia kills him too.
It’s been said that bombs were tested in that area do there could well have been leftover radiation from a previous test which could be why it was on their systems. I am sure the radiation also could cause them to be even more hysteric. The bomb testing also would cause the burn marks found on nearby trees.
Just something I thought off after watching a couple documentaries on the case. I might be factually way off.
This is very silly. Why would a group of athletes bring large amounts of Lsd , which I am sure would have been difficult to come by in 1959 Russia, on this expedition? Who would do psychoactive drugs in a life or death situation in a freezing tent? Lol, I have done plenty of Lsd, it does not make you a stark raving lunatic who runs around in the snow until you die nor makes your tongue fall out. If anything you just want to sit in a comfortable chair, not run amuck.
I think the LSD or other hallucinogenic agent theory makes a lot of sense, but I would add one more bit of evidence to extend the theory: the light “orbs” in the sky, possibly in their last photo. What about this theory: the USSR military was testing psychoactive agents for possible assassination or attack, and they had the scheduled itinerary of the group. The “orbs” were helicopters or other aircraft that dropped a fog or spray of LSD or other hallucinogen. Then they sat back and watched.
Thanks would love to read the book.Thanks for sharing
Whivh book?
Will be published in future new books on dyatlov pass mysteries in Russia or in other countries?
Yeah the Dead Mountain summary seemed to make the most sense to me. Odd that you write it off as a paranormal unlikelihood?
Journalism is dead, It was 9 hikers, and the female missing a tongue was not missing an eye goodness, if your going to tell the story tell it RIGHT……
We do say there were 9 hikers and many reports indicate one (some suggest both) of Dubinina’s eyes were missing.
Too funny You must be a Brit ♂️
Interesting!
I agree
After seeing the supposed photo of the Menk half hiding behind the tree it makes me hope that there are Yeti,s out there but never ever has any DNA been taken from anywhere in the world even from footprints..
I think it was a fellow named Jimmy Weiner from New Jersey who traveled back in time and landed on their tent…. very hard. The hikers were so scared that they ran away and froze to death. The ones with blunt trauma were the ones in the tent that Jimmy landed on.
okay maybe this is not funny..from NJ
NJ!!!!! that is my favorite conspiracy!
Jimmie Weiner landed on that tent-
Hahd.
Something is telling me the gouverment knows.. that would explain why they kept the investagion. Secret
government
Something spooked them suddenly and must have surrounded them from outside as they cut there tent from inside out to peep and escape. I believe they lit no fire as they were trying to draw no attention to themselves from whatever it was. They probably slept huddled to keep warm body to body for body heat and clothes on in morning for extra heat when moving out. We want yo believe something logical but maybe there is an illogical explanation. We have more advanced technology now, we need to use it. DNA testing could surely tell what removed her eyes and tounge and how, was it human or animal like? Get some drones, infra red cameras and heat detection cameras up there. Get some experienced teams of expedition investigatiors up there with sniffer dogs also and get researching. There have been more than 5000 reporting of yetis worldwide all with similar describing’s. It could be possible this creature exists, think of evolution and think of vast areas of the world that are unhabituated and not explored. Perfect place for these historical eveloutionary yetis to hide. Also I do believe government know more about this and are withholding information. Speak to local mountain people, I bet they could tell some stories.
Didn’t one are two of them had their tounges removed?
I believe it was one.
I agree with you Mary.. Consider it may have been a female Yeti and what If she had young nearby. Nothing more dangerous than a mother protecting her babies. Just a thought.

Soviet Union locks up anything on paper. Russians hate paper trails. So do I…
Well the kids took a picture of and ape looking thing.a big foot maybe.I really hope they reopen this case. The technology we have in the world today it shouldn’t be a problem finding the truth.did someone write a book called crying mountain.
All reports in u.s. about big foot sittings that it never attacked humans maybe throwing rocks at people.but these nine hikers took a picture of it.looking at them.maybe just maybe this big foot did attack the nine hikers.it could happen.
I don’t follow mysteries/conspiracies all that much but I must admit that Josh Gates two-part “Expedition Unknown” investigation left me genuinely intrigued.
Perhaps I’m off base here but I question the state of mind/body these individuals were in before they exited their tent and met their inexplicable end. it is notable that for all their supposed experience, they set up camp in an open vs. sheltered location. (The woods would have provided some shelter from the wind and fuel for their stove to heat the tent.) Similarly, it was mentioned that they did *not* make any use of their wood burning stove to keep warm in the tent for at least that night (and maybe more). Why not?
The fact that they chose to set up camp in an overly-exposed location and yet deemed it warm enough inside their tent to remove their socks and apparently sleep without much in the way of added clothing seems to be the the foremost — and most overlooked — clue into what may have happened. For one thing, there is the phenomena of paradoxical hypothermia (you feel hot when you’re actually freezing). Could they have chosen this odd location and lack of sufficient efforts to warm themselves inside the tent, despite the windchill, because they were already suffering from paradoxical hypothermia?
A leading theory is that military was testing weapons in the area and that testing either contaminated the group or startled them into fleeing their tent, at which point they became lost in the dark and/or injured. My variation on the military hypothesis, however, is a bit different: What if the Soviet government was attempting to find a way to enhance physiological performance to withstand temperatures that would normally give people frostbite, if not kill them outright?
In the Cold War context of the time, any physiological advantage would be a boon to the battlefield — i.e. a military force that could function for longer in conditions others could not. As wild as this sounds, is it possible that some or all of the members of the expedition were consuming some type of substance that attempted to increase blood-flow and/or raise body temperature to delay or reduce hypothermia risk — which, in turn, would explain why their clothing was so sparse (inside the tent), they weren’t running a stove despite the ultra-low temperatures, etc? If so, could the side effect of too much of this “experiment” been a case of delirium (similar to the delirium of high fever), at which point some lost their minds, busted out of the tent and/or fought off other members’ attempts to return them to safety?
IMHO, there is more to go on with respect to an experiment-induced tragedy if only because it appears the date they died has been fudged. Official investigative records suggests the bodies were found on or near February 26, whereas a government investigator apparently knew that they were dead on Feb. 6 per a document discussed at the conclusion of the two-part Expedition Unknown “Dyatlove Pass” episode.
The date discrepancy begs a question: Why would the Soviet government know anything specific about the condition of the skiers if they were simply ordinary civilians on a voluntary “Wilderness Club” expedition for which they were not yet overdue for return from their journey on Feb. 6 (as opposed to Feb. 26, when they were supposedly 10 days overdue)? It seems odd that the government would misrepresent the date that they allegedly were found dead unless they were already participants in a government experiment and, during the period between Feb. 6 and Feb. 26, there was an attempt to recover belongings (and diaries) in such a way to ensure that family members who received their personal affects would not be tipped off to the experiment. (This could explain why only some of the diaries were found, while others were said to have been missing — they may have referred to the experiment and therefore confiscated.)
As an casual observer/American, I don’t know if an extreme-weather performance enhancing experiment ever took place in the USSR. If it did, however, it would help make sense of one of the most salient oddities of the entire story: How these ostensibly experienced hiker/skiers would have imagined it appropriate to make camp where they did, wear relatively little clothing inside their tent despite double-digit sub-freezing temperatures and, on top of everything else they did wrong, to forego the stove on successive nights in conditions that obviously would have required the heat.
In summary, I don’t think anybody can rule out that at least some members of the expedition members saw or heard something that terrified them into busting out of their tent. Bear in mind, however, that seeing or hearing things that aren’t there (hallucinations) could be consistent with their deteriorating mental/medical state — whether it was brought about by paradoxical hypothermia, a drug experiment or some combination of both. (In turn, thinking that they needed to snap photos of what they hallucinated could have been a byproduct of a drug delirium.)
As far as I know, I am the only one to have floated a “performance enhancement” experiment hypothesis. Participation in some type of experiment could explain one last aspect of the group’s behavior — the copious amount of photos and diary entries — which, whether they completed their journey or not, would allow medical/military researchers to evaluate the success of the experiment. As members of a “Wilderness Club” that had at least one member who was allegedly in the KGB — and young adults in the prime of life — this group of college students would have been a logical group on which to test a (hypothetical) performance enhancing drug. Is it a wild theory? Yes. But in view of the Cold War tensions and the bizarre things our own military did in the name of medical research — i.e. with LSD — it probably can’t be ruled out.
Your theory makes a lot of sense to me, thanks for posting.
I never believed in the yeti until I saw it. It was noted that the USA was involved with the USSR to catch it alive. There is no way that a hiker was dressed as the yeti. I believe that they knew they were being followed.
Some of the blunt trauma that was found on the bodies was said to have about the same impact as if they were hit by a car.
Did the bodies get tested for LSD? It took place in the time many governments were experimenting in the affects of lsd. They tested on army personal, college students and on prison inmates . Possibly contaminated food from the prison they went trough .
Why would anyone try to come up with an explanation that does not address the fact that the girl was missing her tongue? Another account stated the girl’s lips and nose were also missing. Hypothermia does drive a person to remove their clothing but has never been associated with missing body parts. Primates commonly bite off lips , tongues, noses and genitalia of their victims, this phenomena is well documented. A yeti would be considered a primate and could cause the blunt force to easily kill humans. 2 plus 2 equals 4. Perhaps the yeti was threatened by the military testing and the students were mistaken as the perpetrators of the weapons testing.
Forgot the name of the creature those people living in a private dwelling called it – similar to the Yeti, Bigfoot and Saquash. When they did search the tent, they found a note left there by one of the hikers – “the snowman exists”! A photo I saw of the woman Dubinna showed both eyes missing as well as tongue.
I believe something or animal did exist there. But with these photos of the Yeti, Bigfoot etc, seems funny cameras on a tree seemingly can’t get a better picture of one…nor with our technology, can we trap (capture) one…wonder why???
A recent airing of the Discovery Channel film on one of the UK “repeat” channels led me to trying to find more objective evidence (the film only really considers evidence that appears to support it’s Yeti hypothesis). To be honest, trying to pick out facts from speculation is quite difficult.
What does appear to have happened is that something disturbed the party and caused them to flee the apparent safety of their tent in haste. It seems likely that they had settled down for the night without consciousness of imminent danger, as they had undressed and taken off their boots. (There is no description of their sleeping bags that I’ve found – but were they adequate for the conditions, and the party seemed well prepared – it could be expected that they would try to avoid moisture of clothing and inside the tent).
After a day hiking in the cold, I think it can be assumed that they fell into a deep sleep. Now, I know from experience that being suddenly woken from deep sleep by the presence of danger can lead to irrational thoughts, but being in a group ought to have balanced the likelihood of acting upon them.
As has been suggested elsewhere, the immanence of an avalanche might have caused a rapid escape. That they appeared to run for the apparent safety of the forest edge, where they attempted to light a fire, suggests they were not being pursued by a forest creature.
As for the missing eyes and tongue, these organs tend to be removed by scavengers – most likely members of the crow family.
Of course we’d love there to be an unknown species of giant primate, known locally as the Menk. (Tales told to scare little children from wandering off into the forest?). If such a creature exists, then it would be most likely a close relative or even the gigantopithecus itself, a known creature, believed extinct, with its closest known living relative being the orang-utan.
From the composite descriptions, such a creature appears to be largely solitary (like orangs), as opposed to social (gorillas and chimps). Gorillas and orangs tend to be herbivorous, but whether a large ape could exist on a vegetarian diet in the taiga seems doubtful, so perhaps we may concede it to be omnivorous or even carnivorous.
Which brings us to signs that such an animal would leave. If they predated, or scavenged meat, there would be evidence of carcasses – most likely with dismemberment, as chimps would carry out. Larger prey would point more to sociability and sharing of meals. As to the rather epicurean theory advanced in the film, that only delicacies such as tongues are taken and eaten – well, that just has no credibility for a creature having to sustain a diet supporting a large body size.
Solitary animals tend to be territorial and prominently mark their territories to avoid unnecessary contact. Orangs defecate quite ostentatiously, leaving their faeces in visible mounds, rather than simply scattered about. A large ape, with a similar lifestyle, could be expected to leave its calling cards for researchers to find and hence take away for DNA analysis, but none have been found. Likewise, to the best of my knowledge, no hair samples supposedly originating from various crypto-primates have yet given positive identification of a new species.
If reports are true and there is an unknown large primate, it would seem to avoid human contact. Again, comparison with the orang-utan is helpful, which despite being powerful and muscular, tend to shy away from humans. However, they (males especially) can be territorial and will attack humans if they feel encroached on or threatened. Unlikely however that a forest creature would leave its habitat in defence of a territory…
…and at night. While there are several species of prosimians that are nocturnal – including tarsiers, lorises, bush-babies, the aye-aye – very few monkeys are active at night and most monkeys and none of the great apes have the adaptations necessary for night vision.
Technological progress means that we humans possess night vision through special cameras and binoculars. We have remote and trail cameras and thermal imaging, that have opened up our understanding of rare and secretive species. Has such technology not been tried in the Urals, or elsewhere where reports of unknown primates have been gathered?
So, with regret, I think we must discount the ravening Yeti hypothesis.
Long before the final sinking of the Continent of Atlantis more than 1100 thousand years ago, before the time of Adam an Eve on Atlantis, the development of a sub-race of primitive beings slightly above the animal level to the full stature of bodies not fashioned in Gods image.. These humanoids or mutants feature extensively in the Atlantean records as a primitive form of antediluvian life, which echoes of centaurs , and Minotaur and such of Greek mythology. A subrace of speechless beings not unlike the apes of our present day, where as the Atlanteans had only sought to create a helpmate and companion to serve personal wants as a fleshed robot, which had been used for slave labor by the Atlanteans, and the purpose of the Temples and Pyramids of Egypt was to hasten their evolution by corrective surgery. This involved the use of the laser, followed by ritual purification in the name of the one God. Ascribing karmic consequences for the human race because of our ancient role in begetting these lost creatures devoid of reason. The story of Big foot and these lost creatures tells of bestiality and simian like off-spring, but also of innocent intent.. Perhaps the most compelling versions are to be found in Hindu- Mythology where they are called by name. Read my book Hide-out Planet Earth, Who is Big Foot, coming out late Jan, 2020 in a few weeks. There you will get a pretty good idea just what your up against and be-leave me the Atlantean epoch had set the precede for bringing the so called thing into existence a mistake in retrospect with tragic consequences , yet the Atlanteans had only sought to create a help mate and companion as a fleshed robot.
The Snowman exists…
Ok so I’m watching a movie made in 1957 called “Abominable Snowman/Himalayas. Some that struck me as odd is that one of the hikers wrote “now we know, the snowmen exists” in the journal and what got me thinking, why would a movie made in 1957 call it the snowman and not Bigfoot, yeti, Sasquatch or even the ape man. Where did the “snowman” name come from? Is it because of the area? So the 9 hikers disappeared in 1959 and two years earlier there’s a movie about the snowman. I guess I’m a little baffled by the name itself. I watched the documentary and some of the trauma some of the hikers had could not be done by a human and where this happened, no vehicles could reach that area. As far as the females tongue missing, an animal could account for that but even if that were the case, why didn’t the animals eat more of the body? We’ve all seen nature shows where animals always go back to their kill and finish it but that didn’t happen in this case. Further, humans are the only living thing that kills for reasons other than food. I believe people are seeing Bigfoot no mater what these creatures are called elsewhere. My Native American great grandparents knew of this creature but said it was a shape shifter and one could be standing right in front of you and you wouldn’t see it. Why would they write “now we know the snowmen exists”? Maybe they were part of the whole Russian government looking for the snowmen and actually found them. Something was stalking them which hasn’t been disputed because of the tents having lookout holes and it hasn’t been disputed that the hikers didn’t run out of the opening in the tents. I believe the Russian government and the US government knows exactly what happened to those hikers. As for the only hikers who turned around to go back, maybe he was a Russian intelligent whose sole job was to abandon the group once they got close enough. This is just my theory.
1) Orcas are just one other mammal shown to kill (seals) for sport or “training” but not for food. So much for humans being the only ones that kill NOT for food. 2) I saw one report where the distance between footprints were not consistent with “running” which makes it possible they were “marched” without proper clothing into the cold by a sadistic intruder. 3) From what I can tell, the only reason stated for the idea that the tent was cut from the inside to get out was the lack of footprints… but if someone came toward the tent in the direction they left, then possibly the footprints were obscured? and same individual(s) could have induced a scare, 4) flashlight left turned on at the tent (to me) lends more to someone saying, “drop/leave it” than willfully leaving it behind… if dropped in the dark (assumption) it would likely be snatched up quickly, even in a hurry, 5) if investigators didn’t get there 20+ days after the incident, why wouldn’t some or all off prints in snow be erased or covered… maybe “prints” are in dirt/mud? But if I committed such a desolate crime I would know there was plenty of time to cover my tracks, 6) seems to me three found at bottom of ravine could have been running together to get away and fell almost simultaneously to their demise… especially in the dark, 7) cracked skull could have been from trying to fight back or getting mouthy with intruder(s), 8) two trying to get back to tent were likely watched or prevented from completing journey by intruder(s) and left to die in cold 9) scavengers probably devoured flesh – crows, mink, weasels, etc since it was over 20+ days exposed. Thanks.
Pleasesomeone answers to me! Thank you! Don’t delete my comment please!
I did with Brenda on Jan 15th see comments. See my Book Hide out Planet Earth, Who is Big Foot. Soon to be released Feb- March hopefully.
Building a solid foundation is paramount to your success in the capture of these curious beasts, do not take any short cuts for what is known as the supernatural.
This yeti and others are being controlled by higher forces, animal mutilations in Canada and the United States UFO highways to traumatized a third-generation rancher. A handful of cows could be seen, they were clustered together in a small section of their feed area as close to the barn as they could go. Pictures showing remains of dead cows and skeletons of remains of them and dead horses, no sighs of predators or any sort of defensive resistance no deep hoof prints, obviously died suddenly. Both horses had been stripped to the bone in various places. Over the past decade, they had seen this many times, even more terrifying incidents like this had been going on for more than fifty years this exact same scene had been witnessed and documented on ranches all over Colorado, as well as in new Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Canada and many other places. Horrifying as it was-more than ten thousand individual incidents, in a half dozen states, all of them completely unexplained some ten thousand incidents.
A handful of UFO sightings within a twenty four hour period. One witness, a superior court judge named Charles Bennett, had claimed to have seen three reddish-orange rings in the sky that had main-tainted a triangular formation and had moved at incredible speeds. Those reports had galvanized popular interest. No foot-prints- tire tracks, or signs of violence. Who is Big Foot? Many people in India may also look upon the abominable snow man of he Himalayas called yeti in much the same compassionate light, ascribing karmic consequences for the human race because of our ancient role in begetting these lost creatures devoid of reason. My book tells of who Big foot really is, do not miss out on this book coming soon . James R Elliott Windsor Ontario Canada [email protected].
Russian yeti continues to baffle officials which gives it an air of mystery that has grown as the years have passed. In this log, are descriptions of highly advanced surgery with lasers.
After centuries of experimentation with animals and apes and human beings.
Scientific Psychic Knowledge has created a channel through which it can enter the brain and soon convert the matter into a useful form, use, remember is the ultimate goal of all things and knowledge comes through psychic channels which are- clear an unobstructed. This idea must be perfected for a certain use which is the goal. Now in order to stay, and remain in psychic touch with their divine source in the formative stages they were given a third eye.
This psychic eye then, was replaced by the pineal gland. It was used for psychic visualization, to draw on the higher mind force for all of its needs, spiritually, here in the earth plane. In fact, the greater development of what would be called occult, or psychic forces, in this way the apes lacked for nothing.

Dyatlov Pass incident Yeti Abominable Snowman
What we know is there was a picture of Yeti or a Sasquatch caught on film. The young students ran for their lives whether or not they were Barefoot or clothes unclothed at the time we cannot say. But Common Sense would dictate they must have had their clothes on prior to the attack. Perhaps they were hunted down individually by the yetis and the yetis took their clothes from them and some of them were attacked and brutalized their bones smashed in and one students skull was smashed. This was a brutal attack pursuing the students and rounding them up and stripping them of their only hope for survival and one location they elected to attack and brutalized these young students.
Well. I can tell you the one girls eyes and tongue were probably taken by scavenger’s. The part that begs the question is what chased them? What caused them so much fear they just ran out of the tent? What crushed the bodies and ones skull? I would love to camp there but only with weapons!
I feel once the team realized they were being watched buy one of these yetis or yetis I’m thinking the team was in fear of something they did not understand and I suppose denial played a large part of the team wondering off in another direction to avoid the yetis who are most likely watching them and even perhaps corralling them from a distance that they were able to be seen and observed the team shied away from close contacts with these aliens. As night fell the team could no longer have a visual contact with these beings so I suppose they were in total denial and great fear of the inevitable. In the Frozen Darkness the yetis arrived and the young team answered the call just like any of us would have answered the calling. I once read that Bigfoot Sasquatch arrives on the Silvery Moon but hey that’s not the moon that’s a glowing disc.
I can solve the Dyatlov Pass Incident.
Cherynobyl could of caused this?
Dear Sir/or madam I have solved who is big foot, now those yeti,s that guard the caves in the Ural mountains extend to an under ground base to an advanced civilization the true rulers of the planet. I worn any one in that area to be extremely careful.
Atlantean technology is all around us, and experiments like this yeti as well as big foot
were common place in Atlantean technology. This higher motivation did not seem to prevail among the other sons who chose to bring fourth living thought forms of their own. Most of their projections and their subsequent offspring in- fact became mere drudges slave labors leading the way to an increasing class conscious society in Atlantis in future generations. A mistake in retrospect with tragic consequences for the future like now, for at that time early Atlantean and Lemuria times for then was the cradle of our present Civilization the absolute fountain- head of mans first beginnings.

Does someone know if in year 2020 will ne published Also in russian language new books about Dyatlov pass incident? Thank you! Please don’t delete my comment!!
dyatlov pass tragedy was simple. nobody, human or animal was after them since they made fire in the trees. they got out of the tent in panic for the sound of the extreme wind that they believed was an avalanche. the first 4 who got out of the tent were better dressed and it is normal because they had more time. so the last 5 were out running with less dress since they believed they had no time left. the first 4 running fell in the ravine and broke their bones without marks in the skin due to the thick winter dress. the eyes lost etc etc were predators. the last 5 with less dress died of cold. there is nothing out of the natural cause, not ufo, not yeti, not military experiment, no natives.i’m a mountain climber for 40 years and the sound of the wind in the darkness of the night is a horrible sensation that could play games (fatal games) with your mind.
Personally the Idea of being followed or stalked makes sense.
Why camp in the open? You can watch from all sides and nothing can sneak up on you.
Why not light a fire? Whatever is stalking you could not see the smoke to find you.
The picture of the Menk.
The statement about the snowman being real.
The fact the they seemed to leave in an orderly fashion more than running all over. Like something was herding them to the tree line.
Was the one girl fighting back more so she was attacked more?
Some say bigfoot sightings and UFO sightings are often close to one another in time and area. Could that explain the lights and the radioactive traces found?
Some tree climbing by the campers to see Far away or escape somethings reach?
Lots unexplained and as usual more questions than answers!
Yes more than not they were uncontrolled from a distance I don’t think the party wanted to parley and communicate with these yetis. This young group of people were isolated and alone maroon in this vast wilderness a picture was taken of the Yeti so not much to make about it I think there’s more than ample evidence worldwide when it comes to Sasquatch the abominable snowman yeti Bigfoot yes he does arrive on a silvery moon at night but that isn’t the moon it’s a disc or perhaps a small oblong cigar shaped glowing orb that Maneuvers silently through the forest trees at night once the disc or UFO decides to land it lands with a boom similar to a military jet breaking the sound barrier only much louder and much more acute and centered some eyewitness accounts have said there is a noise similar to an old contraption an old dilapidated steam-powered engine of some sort? This sound is accompanied by a telepathic message that you receive in your mind and the message says Euler’s disc this is followed by whistles very high shrieking intensely shrieking whistles but gaining intensity from a lower decibel to a higher-pitched extremely intense shrieking whissel. Following this shrieking whistle there are only moments to spare for these creatures are very near you and they are coming for you good luck and yes their presents is extremely Radioactive and Witnesses have testified upon encountering these yetis Sasquatch and Bigfoot the peoples faces are burnt and their hair stands straight on end some say hellions enjoy themselves and have a good time with you and then let you go sometimes but it wasn’t to be for these young people that night in the freezing wilderness.

My theory, based on my own knowledge of the subject, is that it was an Almasty, aka, Bigfoot. My reason being that the fear, behavior, and the brutality that they suffered along with the missing body parts. Especially the tongue. That’s been reported several times before in regards to Bigfoot attacks. The Bigfoot do have bad or kean ones just as people do. No matter if they are in Russia, Australia, Vietnam, The United States. Reports of aggressive Bigfoot have been documented. Beating people against trees. Ripping apart bodies. Tearing humans and animals. especially dogs. In half. A couple reports stated that the tongue were missing. Usually, no weapons were used by the Bigfoot except by a few reports of them using sticks as clubs to take out deer and elk.
It is intriguing to say the least. I hope we will eventually have a really good answer to this mystery!
Could be a BigFoot,or Yeti, It also could’ve been a Soviet middle test. I don’t really know. I do feel wat they all went,I could only imagine. I really hope the truth comes out. RIP.. To all of the Hikers, All 9 of them
this case spooked me surely…..there is so much uncertainty about the case as well as how the Russian authorities are keeping mum about it. This must have been a huge conspiracy or some government experiment gone wrong or this fact irks me how the last 4 hikers were wearing the clothes of other dead hikers (to survive obviously) which means that they witnessed what happened to others and were probably running to save their lives and it perfectly fits that they were silenced so whatever they had witnessed doesn’t come out. It must have been something really sinister and bone-chilling that they had undergone such inhumane trauma.
They are the only ones that truly know what happened
It is just horrific how they died it, they must be petrify, can you imagine, you running for you life in he hardest thick and coldest snow in the vast darkness, and no one can help you, especially in the middle of no where. The Authority either know the answer or don’t, they going to keep it quite, may be they want to avoid being responsible.
I believe in the avalanche theory. Wired Magazine. They slept on their skiis inside the tent. Before they set the tent, they cut into the top snow layer triggering a timeline for an avalanche. The snow crushed their tent, they cut their way out. They had just suffered fractured skulls, chests, internal injuries. Then they walked without their clothing items, as they were under the snow, to where they had a second set of food supplies in the forest. They could not locate the supply. ie. snow might have covered it. The more severely injured were dying in the ravine.
Jan:
40 years ago I have been a soldier in Czechoslovakian army. We would camp in tents in snow at 20 degrees C below zero. We cut branches of spruce trees, to make an insulating floor in the tent, spread our sleeping bags on this floor and sleep. We would never take off any garments, we would sleep fully dressed. Sleeping bag does not provide enough warm for undressed person in such circumstances. During day, when we were moving, our bodies were exhausting heat, so the clothes gave enough protection from cold. During the night, as we were not moving, we had to add the sleeping bag to keep us warm.
Only thing we had to take off were boots. We took off boots and put on dry socks. First night I slept with boots on, and it was freezing for my feet. Then an experienced soldier explained to me that I have to take the boots off.
If there was an alarm, the first thing was to pull the boots on, the second was grab your weapon and bag.
The fact that these hikers were undressed is odd – they would freeze to death the first night on the trip, if they were sleeping in their underwear in the sleeping bags in such low temperatures (and wind). They did not even have the spruce branches under sleeping bags, but having them on the frozen ground, as they were on an open slope.
The investigation should give answer to this issue first.
The fact, that they were undressed could indicate that a drug was used/tested, to make them feel warm.
It is said that the tent was cut open from inside. If you take a knife and cut tent canvas, there is no chance to find if it was cut from inside or outside. I you do not believe me, just try.
Another issue is this:
Bodies were found covered/half covered in the snow.
The tent was half covered by show.
How come their foot prints were visible?
This is not possible.
The foot prints would be covered by snow, particularly on windy day/night within hours, not being visible after 24 days!
Hikers left the tent in hurry, but they had fire lighting equipment with them to start the fire in the forest?
Somebody mentioned a wood stove in the discussion here.
These people were traveling on foot with all equipment in their bag packs.
Do you understand how heavy wood stoves are?
Impossible to carry them on your back.
What we used in the army, and was used even before WWII is called solid alcohol. These are cubes of white stuff similar to fire starters we are using in stoves/BBQs these days. We would use pocket size folding “stove” heavy only about 50 grams, to make hot tea and warm up canned food. Could be used also to warm up a small truck, I used them to warm up cabin of a truck, when we were standing for long ours without engine running.
The fact that they were able to make a fire under a tree in windy conditions, with a frozen wood cowered with ice indicates they used solid alcohol starter. There is zero chance to start a fire with matches only under these conditions.
They could be also equipped with what was called “thermite”, this was a solid chemical fire starter, I believe it was available those days, and they could be equipped with it, as they were in an organized group. But one of those guys would have to have it in his pants when he left the tent, he would not remember to take it out of his backpack in haste.
Another point:
These people were 20-24 year old. Eight of them.
Except one: this bloke was 38 years old, born in year 1921. When the Soviet Union was attacked on 1st of June 1941, he was 20 years old. This means he would be conscripted to the army, and in those circumstances, at low rank, he had no chance to survive between 1941-1945. These young boys were driven to the front, till the day they died. If he survived, that means he was in a special units, for special secret tasks, not in the front line.
He also wasn’t the man who he was to be by his family name. DNA testing proved this. During war he assumed identity of a killed man. Who he was? He died in the ravine, but what was his task on this trip? Which department he really worked for?
So there are many gaps in this story.
I believe they were being hunted by a bigfoot creature that was watching them . I saw the footage showing the creature on film and you can hear the fear in their voices as they were watching it. Whatever this thing was I believe there was more than one due to the fact these kids split up in deferent directions to get away from what was after them. In order to find truth what happened do a full investigation and send a large group of people to this region and find the answers for the families. We need to bring closure for the families.
Well to me I think it was a yeti.
That’s why they fled from their tents.
Cause I know I would.
Experimented on with use of high power energy weapons. They hpew we have now in 2021 are so fucking distructive.
Obviously they were testing some sort of neutron bombs near the hikers location. Most likely the hikers were killed rather quickly by lethal radiation. Military came in and staged the whole scene. The 4 in the supposed shelter hole were so badly injured, they would of had to be carried there. More likely a burial than a shelter. Government cover up due to testing small thermonuclear neutron weapons when they should of known those hikers were there that night.
