When you talk about heroism, you have to consider mountains with some serious obstacles.
In Dyatlov's case, it's called "hanging around doing nothing."
Maybe some palcrs are problematic in the winter, but they underestimated them, because they were used to routine.
But there were 40 rescuers after then, and not a single person died.
Only Sharavin had a concussion.
Usually such places are interesting in summer, because you can pick some berries there.
That's why I go up to the mountains in summer. I can't imagine what you can do in winter. You can probably break the ice on the river and fish, but you don't have to go up to the mountains for that.
My house is 360 meters above sea level, and my apartment is 370 meters above sea level.
This summer I only went out for a walk TO MOUNTAINS on May 4 and September 4, but in general the summer was hot, and I only walked in the park.
Recently I went out only to check the dependence of radiation on altitude, to check Shamil's theory. I measured radiation at three places where people died.
First, on the ring road, I measured radiation near a rock where a person was hit by a car.
The average radiation value at the site of the accident and death was 7 microroentgen.
Then I measured the radiation when I crossed the stream at the beginning of the climb (40 minutes from the city).
The measurements showed 12 and 16. I was sitting on a reinforced concrete slab across the stream. The readings were the same at home, perhaps this is due to the delezobeton.
I sat and rested for 5 minutes (I left the house at 10:40 and crossed the stream at 12 noon), and the climb took 55 minutes. The descent took 54 minutes (the difference in altitude is 300 meters, like between the Dyatlov tent and the cedar). I went down at 14:00. In my case, the cedar is on top. In the middle of the climb, I stopped at a cross where someone once died. The cross is overgrown with grass and trees, and you can't see it.
At the top of the climb there is a tree, similar to a cedar with broken branches. Next to it (3-5 meters) there is a cross, installed before 2003.
When I was going down, I met an old woman from the neighboring house (70 years old), who climbed up without much difficulty.
What I want to say. When I climbed up for raspberries (and for berries in general) at 30-35 degrees, it is more difficult than a walk in spring or autumn. Raspberries grow when it is rare, so I stopped several times on the way up (300 meters of altitude, from 470 at the stream and 770 meters on the ridge), I stopped every 50 meters of altitude. It was not difficult to climb up at a temperature of 25, I stopped only once, in the middle of the climb, to measure the radiation at the cross of the deceased.
I asked why there are grave crosses. I was told that one person died because it was a pity in the summer and the atmosphere was such that his heart could not stand the stuffiness, and he died. I was also told that one person froze to death in the winter. Which cross refers to which deceased, I do not know. Probably the person in the middle of the road froze to death, and died from overheating at the top.
Theodora writes that visiting Otorten this summer was prevented by cold and rain.
We had a different situation, in the summer it was so hot that when I went to the store, I immediately returned tired from the heat. The most tiring day was August 21, when I had to go out 2 times, and I spent 10 minutes on it 2 times.
Each cross had 7 microroentgen. All 3 unfortunate places showed an average value of 7 microroentgen (between 6 and 9), this reminded me of Igor Pavlov's nickname (s777).
Yes, of course we were told that someone killed or robbed someone in the forest, but these are all fairy tales for children, so that they are afraid to go.
