In 1978, a Soviet helicopter pilot flying over the forests of Siberia made an incredible discovery. Not far from the border of Mongolia, up the side of a mountain, he saw a clearing and signs of human habitation.
The location was far removed from any other humans. In fact, it was almost 250 kilometers to the nearest human settlement.
What they found there was astonishing.
