EP 76 "A Sinister Unknown: The Dyatlov Pass Backpacking Disaster" PART II

This is PART II of our two-parter on the Dyatlov Pass Incident, so if you’re just tuning in; do yourself a favor and listen to Part I first. We’re going to jump right back in where we left off–which was March of 1959. 9 young hikers never made it home from a carefully planned backpacking trip deep in the heart of Russia’s Ural Mountains…under increasingly odd circumstances. Searchers had located four of their bodies several hundred yards away from their abandoned tent—without shoes or coats–but 5 hikers were still missing, and every day that passed made the search feel bleaker. Once more into the heart of frozen mountains and Soviet Russian conspiracies we go. Lights Out Campers.
