In January 1959, 10 hikers began their journey to Mount Otorten through the Ural Mountains in Russia. Though the group was composed of well-experienced, young healthy hikers, this group was intent on trekking out into the wilderness at the end of January. Despite the harsh, unforgiving conditions the hikers managed to fight their way through the cold and the snow, making decent progress every day for 10 grueling days. But then, on the 10th day, something went terribly wrong, and 9 of the hikers died under strange and mysterious circumstances.
