Dead Mountain : the untold true story of the Dyatlov Pass incident  Cover Image Book Book

Dead Mountain : the untold true story of the Dyatlov Pass incident / Donnie Eichar ; with J.C. Gabel and Nova Jacobs.

Eichar, Donnie, (author.).

Summary:

In February 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers in the Russian Ural Mountains died mysteriously on an elevation known as Dead Mountain. Eerie aspects of the incident-- unexplained violent injuries, signs that they cut open and fled the tent without proper clothing or shoes, a strange final photograph taken by one of the hikers, and elevated levels of radiation found on some of their clothes-- have led to decades of speculation over what really happened. Eichar retraces the hikers' fateful journey in the Russian winter to bring the real story of what happened that night on Dead Mountain.
