On January 23, 1959, nine students from the Ural Polytechnic Institute set off on an adventure trekking through the Ural Mountains with an instructor. Less than a month later, the bodies of the nine students would be found in the mountain with their tent cut open. What happened to make these experienced hikers cut their tent and flee into the dark and snowy night of the Ural Mountains would remain a mystery for decades. To this day no one knows what went wrong on this mountain that night......BUT we're going to speculate on this weeks episode.
