In 1959, nine experienced hikers set off into the Ural Mountains of Soviet Russia. They never returned. What search teams found weeks later shocked even hardened investigators: a tent slashed from the inside, bodies scattered across the snow, some barefoot, some with fatal internal injuries—and no clear explanation.


In Part 1 of our two-part series, we take you deep into the timeline of events: who the hikers were, what they were doing, and what exactly rescuers found on that frozen slope. Was it an avalanche, a military cover-up... or something far stranger?


❄️ Eyewitness reports, recovered diaries, autopsy findings—this is where the mystery begins.


🔍 Listen now, and decide for yourself: what really happened on Dyatlov Pass?
