I can not figure why they didn't return for bootsОни не вернулись не только за ботинками, но и за куртками. Более того, они выбросили четыре куртки, уже вынесенные из палатки. При этом они не бежали от палатки, а уходили медленным шагом.

I can not figure why they didn't return for bootsThey did not return not only for shoes, but also for jackets. Moreover, they threw away four jackets that had already been taken out of the tent. At the same time, they did not run away from the tent, but left at a slow pace.
P.S. The incident did not happen at night in the cold, but during the day at a temperature of about 0 ° C (32 ° F).
They weren't necessarily "wasting" the day. In their book, Teddy and Igor Pavlov make a good case for the theory that the Dyatlovites planned to use the 6th day of skiing--which was February 1st--as a rest day.I can not figure why they didn't return for bootsThey did not return not only for shoes, but also for jackets.

If it happened during the day, what is their reason to set up the tent on the slope? This means they would have had time to go to the forest and do it there.I understand this assumption comes from the conditions needed to form "raised footprints". But at the same time it sounds like they were wasting another day by setting up camp early?

This means they would have had time to go to the forest and do it there.Как они могли видеть лес? Граница леса находится в километре от места палатки, а видимость в момент установки палатки была около 50 метров из-за метели.
How could they see the forest? The border of the forest is located a kilometer from the tent site, and visibility at the time of installation of the tent was about 50 meters due to a snowstorm.
