My 3-4 FOOT TALL, REDDISH-HAIRED 'YETI' Encounter on Mt. Everest'

A college student was part of a Mt. Everest trek. During the climb, he encounters a 3-4 foot tall, thick reddish-haired primate, similar to an orangutan, climbing an ice fall. The Sherpa guide said that it was a Yeti.

I received the following account:

"During Christmas break in grad school in December 1983 - January 1984, I was part of a Mt. Everest trek. We weren’t going to summit — basically, we hiked from a small mountain town airstrip to the base camp at the Khumbu glacier where the real climbers take off from. Takes 10 days or so each way, with stops at monasteries along the way to adjust to the altitude.

It was winter in Nepal so most of the higher elevations were basically deserted. It’s very cold and rocky up there, not very inviting, but starkly beautiful. The pack train had gone on ahead to set up camp and we each just hiked along at our own pace until we caught up at the end of the day. It was mid-afternoon and as I rounded a sharp corner in the tiny, narrow mountain ledge trail I encountered a creature standing on the trail in front of an ice fall.

It was clearly a primate of some sort. Not huge, between 3 and 4 feet tall. Thick reddish hair like an orangutan. Long arms. We just sort of looked one another over for maybe 10 seconds and then he turned, climbed up the ice fall (maybe 20-25 feet), and vanished over the top. I didn’t feel threatened by him at all, but was very impressed by his speed and agility — he just zoomed up the sheer ice face and was gone. He didn’t seem to be startled and fleeing, just moving on. It left me nonplussed for a few minutes, but eventually I resumed hiking. When I told our Sherpa guide about it, he said it was a Yeti. Although his English was spotty, I got the impression there was a range of animals they considered to be a Yeti, not just the Johnny Quest-type abominable snowman we talk about over here. So whatever else is up there, at least in the early 1980s there were smallish apes with excellent climbing skills." BF

NOTE: I talked to the witness and received particular personal details. I'm convinced that his account is true. Lon

I hear and read cryptid encounter reports daily. There are risks and dangers in the wilderness. Most campers, hikers, and hunters research and respect any wildlife or environmental pitfalls before heading to the location.

But how can these people protect themselves from a creature they are told doesn't exist? An anomalous being that is so abominable that it's difficult for the human mind to comprehend.

I'll examine several reports that I have received over the years so that you can develop your rationale for their existence.
