Absolutely 100%. It all fits, and all the crazy stuff about lips and eyes removed are easily explained by animals picking at dead bodies.
... But it was totes a bio weapons test conducted by aliens from the future.
Especially with the bodies in the creek. Snowmelt would push them that direction.
I agree, but I love hearing different theories for stuff like this lol.
Would an avalanche have buried/displaced their tent and bodies?
I’m guessing the discoveries were far later, allowing time for it to melt off
It's been a while since I read about it but IIRC, rescuers arrived just days later and were able to follow their tracks down the mountain to where some of the bodies were eventually found. An avalanche powerful enough to kill the whole party surely would have wiped all this away even if some of it had melted away in the preceding couple of days.
