Please forgive me if I seem to be condisending, but Wikipedia? Really? LOL You do realize that pretty much anyone can post whatever they wish, right? Maybe you should dig a lot deeper than an obivous source which holds little credability.

Even Wikipedia says to use it in the beginning of your study, which is what i did. It was just a starting point.

I found a site that actually has information directly from those who were involved in the search. I believe this site because they actually have a letter of appreciation from the Dyatlov Team Foundation, which serves to promote education and understanding of this event.
This website explains much of the damage that occurred to the bodies through forensic science. They explain the snowfall. How it was never covered up by the government... etc. They explain the uranium-- that it was just superficial and probably from a lab environment at the polytechnical university and transferred from one person's clothing to another when they took clothes off the deceased person's body. They also explain the orange skin-- much in the same way UNR describes it, since it is a common trait of bodies found in the snow after 2-3 months. The hair being grey is also explained to be a myth.
I encourage you to visit this site. Much of what it states coincides with possible explanations given by myself and UNR. Some of it is divergent (for example-- it does corroborate that there was NO avalanche in the area that it was just wind-blown snow that covered the 4 bodies found in the ravine 2-3 months after the initial event) , though it does adequately explain through scientific, forensic, and logical evidence the circumstances after the group left the tent. It also explains that much of the information relating to the incident has been sensationalized... and it is difficult to find an accurate account of the event.
However, the mystery as to why these experienced skiers left their tents in such a hurry, entering blatantly perilous conditions in the first place, still remains unknown. What scared them so badly? WHY did they leave the tent in such a hurry?
Was it hypothermia? Were they scared of something INSIDE the tent? Did one of them panic, causing the rest of them to follow? Therein lies the true mystery.
Here is the website I suggest you read:
http://www.aquiziam.com/dyatlov_pass_answers.html
They have other pages and photographs that prove interesting.
If you do manage to get a hold of the documents now held by the Dyatlov Foundation... I would be interested in seeing them. I don't personally read Russian, but I do know someone fluent in the language who could translate for me.
(Apparently UNR found the site... heh. A lot of it is quoted above... but now you have an excellent source and location to read more and see more...)
My husband swears it was BabaYaga who scared the skiers. The reason there are no extra footprints because her house flies. The others fled, but the girl with the missing tongue had her soul sucked out by the ogress-witch. (How else do you flavor soup than with a good tongue and soul?) The trauma to the other victims was caused by the chicken feet of the house, which kicked them 1.6 km into the ravine where the others fled and tried to keep warm. Hypothermia was way better than dying at the hands of BabaYaga!

Made a lot of us do some real thinking!
Thanks, also, to those who posted links and provided discourse on this topic. I have one last article to finish reading from one of the links but the points of view and thoroughness of the those posting here has been great.
