I think you should go, Anna.
1. Evidence of the presence of military and KGB officers at the pass should be sought in archival documents. The soldier's winding, found in the spring of 1959, is an important evidence of the presence of the military, who could have been the liquidators of the Dyatlov group.
2. The loss of weapons was severely punished, and therefore it is unlikely to be possible to find a gun. (I appreciated your humor)
3. Of course, we need to keep looking for artifacts in the cedar, the creek and the helicopter landing zone.
4. If I were younger, I might have gone on this hike. In 2001 and 2002, I walked 170 km with the Procession. It wasn't easy. Russian Russian soldiers from Florida were with us, I remember, probably sent to pray for the entire Russian diaspora. So did the American professor-historian Larry E. Holmes. Memoirs of this procession were written and published. You can read:

5. On June 3, 2023, the Procession leaves Vyatka again.
