I will never harm the Boot Rock because I don't want the wrath of the Dead Mountain upon me. I will bring you what the winds have weathered away. The stone has to have willingly separated and began its own journey.

The Bird Rock is on top of the Kholat Syakhl (aka Dead Mountain). This is the closest you will get to a sacred place. People that are aware of its existence ask for permission to go to Otorten, the final destination of the Dyatlov group. The stone that I will bring you will be loose, I will not harm the rock or else I wont live to mail it to you.

This is a tough one because I, like the Dyatlov group, have never reached Mt Otorten. It was their final destination. This year, with your help, I hope to reach this magical place. Legend has it this is a gate to another dimension. There is a warning not to go through the gate. There are things that are "not for us to know". The mountain is dubbed "Don't go there". I will not dare to break a piece, rather lift a stone fallen on its own. The top of the gate has weathered to nothing. it is believed that once the gate opens all hell will break loose, and I do not want to be around when it happens.

This is not my idea. A scientist, author of a book "The Nature of Holy Water" asked me if I can bring him water from where the bodies laid for 3 months. His research shows that the structure of the water changes after it is blessed. He is photographing educed crystals. He wanted to see if the water in this creek is any different from the water in other parts of the mountain. He calls it "water memory".

The tree under which the bodies of Krivonischenko and Doroshenko were found very rarely produces pine cones, so I am not going to lie that I can bring you pine cones from this particular cedar, but there are plenty of cedars nearby. These trees are 200 year old. They all witnessed the tragedy. On the photo is Prof. PhD Momchil Panayotov from the Dendrology department of the University of Forestry, Sofia, Bulgaria, who is helping me with the case. In exchange he is more than happy to accept a pine cone!

"The bizarre deaths of a group of experienced Russian mountaineers in what is known as the Dyatlov Pass incident have, for sixty-five years, been considered one of the greatest mysteries of the 20th Century, captivating the imaginations of millions. Despite the numerous books and documentaries already existing on the subject, never before has there been such an all-encompassing, in-depth exploration of all of the facts. Pavlov and Hadjiyska's close scrutiny of the case comes complete with supporting documentation and testimony from those involved in both the search for the missing climbers and in subsequent investigations into the case, including forensic scientists. “1079” is the ultimate compilation and analysis of data on the subject, culminating in an astounding new theory which finally offers a plausible explanation for what may have actually happened to the hikers."
The book is available in four languages: Russian, English, German and Spanish. Igor Pavlov died before the book came out. I am the only author you are left with to sign the book. You will get it with personalized inscription tanking you for contributing to my fourth expedition to the pass. I believe this expedition will be crucial for the case.
