In 1959, nine experienced Russian hikers died mysteriously in the Ural Mountains' Dyatlov Pass. This week, we investigate their final days through recovered diaries, photographs, and official reports. From an abandoned tent cut from within to bodies found with unexplained injuries, the case has baffled investigators for decades. We examine the evidence, explore competing theories, and unpack the 2021 official conclusions about what really happened on Dead Mountain that February night.
