I thought maybe the trail was cold. It’s been a full month, maybe two, since the last discovery of new evidence that YETIS ARE REAL AND AT LARGE. Well, lo, just when I began to give up hope, footprints:
“Myself and other team members have been coming to the Himalayas for years and we can recognise bear, deer, wolf and snow leopard prints and it was none of those,” he said.
“We remain convinced it is real. The footprints and the stories the local tell make us sure that it is not imaginary,” he added.
Photographs of the prints have been posted on the expedition’s website, www.everest.co.jp/yeti2008/.
The team had set out nine motion-sensitive cameras in an area where Takahashi saw what he thought was a yeti during a previous expedition in 2003.
“It was about 200 metres away in silhouette. It was walking on two legs like a human and looked about 150 centimetres tall,” said Takahashi.
Despite their lack of success this time, the team plans to continue the quest.
“We will come back as soon as we can, and we will keep coming back until we get the yeti on film,” said Takahashi.
