    I am invested, as a non-hiker.

    Things have been WAY hotter lately, but not when they died. Although, heat stroke depends on how long they went, what time of the day and how much coverage and water they had so the heat index isn't a given factor.

    But if she left them and went to get help, that tells me that likely they were all having a problem and she was the strongest to go ahead to look for help. If the baby were in trouble, she'd take the baby for sure. But if she were also in trouble, maybe leaving them behind together and going alone for help made more sense.

    If he collapsed, surely she wouldn't leave the baby with him so he must have been somewhat coherent. Then you have the scenario that maybe she was naturally ahead of them and they all suffered something at the same time so there was no decision making involved. That would also make sense because she wasn't carrying the baby or tending to the dog so maybe ended up ahead of them on the trail in general and then "Boom". You're struck with something all at once. Just fucking bizarre.

    Depending on what was going on with them, neither of the parents may have been thinking clearly.

    It's like something out of a movie. I'm still leaning towards a poison.

    I suppose the adults could have taken some sort of drug that killed them, and if the baby was still breast fed it might have killed her too... but that doesn't explain the dog. It's a mystery.

    What I was thinking is that if both parents passed from something, the baby would have eventually died from exposure. The dog could have possibly refused to leave them and the same could have happened to him. I don't think we were going through a heat wave when they died, but it's still been pretty hot so without water or shelter heat stroke could have set in on both.

    That's possible.

    Frankly, my dogs aren't that loyal. I suspect they'd feast on my body before they headed back down the trail. But yes the baby would have been helpless if both the parents went down.

    Ok so it was heat stroke, toxic algae, or poison.

    One of my dogs is definitely not that faithful, the other I'm not sure either way however I don't intend on testing their loyalty out

    Dang. Their autopsies were ALL "inconclusive"? This gets more and more bizarre. If it was heat stroke of some sort, I would think that the autopsy would show that. Crazy.

    This is such a weird case.

    Very weird. Usually, I can make 1 solid guess but man, I'm stumped as to the obvious cause.
    Toxins may cause liver damage but their livers were fine? No irritation of the eyes, nose, throat or lungs?

    I think I read somewhere the husband was sitting upright when found? I thought that was odd.

    It's Dyatlov Pass + The Somerton Man


    Edit : I'm still leaning toward toxic algae on this. I think maybe the dog got in the water & splashed them or shook off on them.

    I also wondered if they might've used filter bottles so they could purify water they collected on the hike instead of carrying heaps in with them - but it didn't get rid of all the algae

    Yeah. Like he just collapsed slowly. Very odd

    I was just looking at filter straws online for a trip of my own and noticed that lots of reviews talk about all the stuff they still let in....so this could be it. I imagine all 4 would drink the same water too.

    Hmm. Looks like algae is still the number one suspect

    Okay. It's looking like we're right about toxic algae. I have questions -
    I am not a hiker, I would rather have a third root canal so I don't get some things....

    1. Why did they not have inflammation/irritation of the mouth and/or lungs?
    2. Why would they drink water that has toxins in it? Even filtered.
    I see those warning signs, I'm a nope!
    Why do hikers think toxins will be filtered out? It's not like it's just dirty water.
    Why wouldn't they bring their own water?

    they packed their own water. What are the chances that they went swimming in the water?

    This is what I don't get. Even if only the dog went in the water and shook off on them, how would it be so lethal that it kills ALL of them? Wouldn't you have to ingest it? Did they lick the dog dry?

    It can enter through skin but they were clothed. Skinny dipping in the toxins? Still confused. Maybe there's still a twist here.

    At this point, I'm wondering if they were eating sheep dip... It's just so odd.
