Dyatlov Pass incident

[AVGWarhawk]

The branches of cedar, under which they were lying, were broken at a height of about 5 meters. On the trunk of a tree forensic doctors found traces of skin and other tissues. With this evidence it is believed that they climbed the tree and broke off branches until their hands were literally raw.

Possible animal attack. Why climb a tree in the woods unless you are being attacked by the local wildlife? Their hands raw from climbing like mad or slipping as they gave up due to the cold weather.

Dubanina’s head is thrown back with her mouth open just as it was while she took her last dying breath. Her tongue may already be frozen as something rips it, and possibly the lining of her oral cavity, from her body.

Probably local wildlife was helping themselves to the oral cavity. It is not unusual at all for wildlife to eat dead animals or humans for that matter.

I believe the bodies were not found until three months later. That would be plenty of time to cover any tracks made by man or animal. It is quite possible the fractured skulls and broken ribs were a result of falling from trees as they climbed or slipping into the ravines were several were found. A few with broken ribs. The tents ripped up could be accounted for by a bear. These folks possibly just sat a distance away. Either let the bear have at you or let the cold air produce hypothermia and death.
