I would think there would still be a significant explosion.. which there wasnt. Also, you would think this would create MASS amounts of radiation... which there wasn't.

The explosion would have been several kilotonnes. Still capable of destroying normal civil structures within 600m. But if it was such a device it is likely to have detonated on the other side of the summit of Kholat Syakhl, and the tent would have been shielded from the worst of it. If the explosion was 1 to 2 km away then the over pressure at the tent would only be several psi - not enough to cause significant damage to people.
Radiation. Initially radiation levels would have been high. But would decay quickly and be safe after two weeks. Well before the search and rescue party arrived. Also if there was fallout on the snow then it could have been scouted away by the wind in the same way it scoured away the snow around the compacted foot prints. Also if there was further snow fall that could easily cover up the fallout and making it difficult to detect.
If there was a low yield device and significant fallout then the tree rings would hold the answers.

The construction was found at a distance of ten kilometers from the site ! ? Thats a long way from the site. And its highly unlikely that any Nuclear Tests took place any where near the site.

There was no Nuclear explosion of any kind near the site of the Dyatlov Incident. Too many things point to the Nuclear explosion theory as being highly unlikely.

Wouldn't an explosion of that magnitude leave a large footprint on the ground even if detonated at some altitude? Look at the Tunguska incident.

I think it would depend on whether there were any trees within 600 metres of the explosion on the south west side of the mountain. If there were no trees then it would just melt a bit is snow and blow it around. After 3 weeks you wouldn't notice anything obvious as snow could over up the evidence.
