In the same area strictly in a southwesterly direction on a slope of mountain "1079" at a distance of 500 (on top written "58" or "56") meters away from the body (proved to be Dyatlov Igor Alekseevich) is found a female body. It's identified as Zinaida Alekseevna Kolmogorova.
The body lay in the snow, under a layer of solid firn snow. Nearby in a radius ( "in a radius" is inserted) of 70 meters there is not a single tree. The body lay her head in the same direction as the previous bodies face to the ground on her right side. Hands bent under the body. Both legs half-bent. Right leg lifted to the stomach (it seems that the person climbed up the hill). On the head is a pink wool cap. On the body she was wearing a ski jacket and a checkered shirt underneath. On the feet wearing ski pants underneath leggings and underwear. On her feet woolen socks. Face is bloodied. On the back near the waist abrasions, blood present.
