You're forgetting that there's more to surroundings than weather. Scavengers digging out the tent to find the goodies is a good explanation for why the tent doesn't have much on it.
And even if the avalanche it were a small one, being able to cover that much of the tent means it easily possessed the force to break bones. Avalanches are never mistaken for a light snowfall. They're the accumulated force of lots of snow all going downhill.
Soooo...... a bunch of squirrels completely unburied a tent trapped under the frozen snow of an avalanche? And before you say something like a bear or other large animal did it, why didn't it just eat the abundance of dead people in the forest? Again, they also mentioned that no other tracks were found at the site and I'm sure the markings of various wild life checking out the area would have been noted.
There is also the fact that the tent was found on the surface. If something unburied it, it would have been in a hole or surrounded by very, very,
very obvious piles of disturbed snow and not above ground with the foot prints and tracks. There is just no evidence supporting an avalanche theory, and the lack of prints of large animals means the probability of a large scavenger is abysmal at best, especially when the biggest thing you'd probably find running about is a fox.
On further research several other sites with theories on the Dyatlov Pass case also rule out avalanches rather quickly for the same reasons as stated above.
http://www.aquiziam.com/dyatlov_pass_answers.htmlThis one especially notes that the immediate area around the site was not damaged at all in anyway that would suggest a force of nature as powerful as an avalanche. Later on in the reading they have more conclusive evidence to suggest an avalanche did not occur in the area.
And I am well aware of what an avalanche is. I was using light snow fall in a comical manner as the tent in the picture was clearly not covered at all.
http://www.aquiziam.com/dyatlov_pass_1.htmlThis portion of the site gives a theoretical timeline of events. As noted, the skull injury of the first victim is most likely caused when they fell from a tree they attempted to climb, and the four with chest injuries were huddled together in the ravine, which other sections of the site note was 17 feet or more deep with a sudden drop off. Evidence suggests the four of them fell to their deaths.
More interesting however is the fact evidence suggests the opposite of paradoxical undressing. The members were scavenging what clothing they could get, even going as far as taking the clothing off their dead friends and wearing them themselves.
Adding together everything I can find, it is almost certain that something happened in that tent that freaked them the hell out. They got away as fast as they could and hid in the woods, leaving all their clothing and supplies behind as they did so. They tried to stay alive by lighting a fire and sharing as much clothing as possible but to no avail. One of the party tried to climb a tree to try and see if whatever was at that tent was still there, but he fell to his death before he could do so, cracking his skull open and dying instantly. Three of the party tried to walk back to the tent but died one at a time. The last four scavenged the clothes off their friends before continuing on back to the tent. For whatever reason the last four alter their course and make a wider walk around to the tent. In doing so they fall into the ravine and suffer their injuries. Unable to continue any longer, they die waiting for sweet death to end their pain.
