--- End quote ---
The geometric "straight" lines that form the outline of what looks like the silhouette of the tent, that is in the foreground of the shot, at the bottom of the image. You can see the corners of the back of the tent. Just to the right of the back of the tent, there is a person standing up. They are half in and half out of the image. The top of the tent lies slightly below the shoulder. The person has their back to the camera. They are wearing a coat with a hood. The hood is down. They are also wearing a hat. The top of the hat is dark and there is band of lighter material around the circumference of the hat, the person is looking at the mushroom cloud (as you would probably expect). Although the image seems damaged, you can see the darker tent as you move from right to left along the bottom of the image. Only the top half of the tent is in the image. There is more damage to the image on the left hand side, but you can see the change in brightness as you get to the front of the tent. The tent is fairly parallel with the respective to the image, which means the mushroom cloud is over the summit and probably behind it to some extent on the South is the mountain and up wind more or less. Based on the scale presented by the size of the person in the image, the dark outline of the tent is about 4 metres long - which is about right.
You will need to zoom in to the image to see it more clearly. I would suggest you look at it in a darkened room too.
The mushroom cloud still appears to have incandescent gases in it which creates a big contrast difference . The original image is also very under exposed for the light conditions and damaged in places. Not sure if the cloud has smoldering debris falling from it or if this is just damage to the chemical film.
If I'm right then this image could show the beginning of the events that led to the death of the hikers.

I'm trying to see what you describe, but with no luck. Could you trace the outlines on the picture so we can see what you mean? I can't find a tent or a person or anything except the obvious white shapes.

Have highlighted the areas where the head, body and tent may be. Note this is speculative. The frame was quite badly damaged. What I find more interesting is that the frame which was under exposed, when enhanced results in an image which has symmetry about the centre when turned through 90 degrees. That is 90 degrees to how the photo is normally presented. If we assume that the photograph was a deliberate shot rather than an accidental shot (which it still could well be), then it is likely that the person taking the shot would centre the image being photographed in the frame. If you were taking a shot of a tall column of smoke and flame, you would need to turn the camera through 90 degrees to fit it in better. Have a closer look at the areas highlighted by zooming in on the images in the previous posts.

Ahhh... I see what you're saying. That makes sense--thanks!
ETA: That's a good point about the symmetry and composition of the photo if turned 90 degrees.

Didn't Ivanov mention them in an interview back in 1990. Or is this fake news? Some way or another it would be consistent with the low yield nuke theory.
And then again these burned tree tops can be neglected.

If it's fake news, Ivanov himself is guilty of spreading the falsehood. This is from the article by Lev Ivanov, ("Leninskiy Put", Kustanay, 22 and 24 November 1990):
"When already in May we examined the scene of the incident with E. Maslennikov we found that some young trees on the forest tree line have traces of burning, but they are not in concentric shape or any other system. There was no epicenter."
