Is there a strange something high up in the world's tallest mountains? If so, is it a big bear? Is it a monkey? Or is it a kind of man?
No one knows. This mystery (谜) has puzzled (困惑) the world for years.
In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints (脚印) in the snow. They looked like the footprints of a very large man. But men don't walk without shoes in the snow!
In 1906, another climber saw more than footprints. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran very quickly.
Fifteen years later, newspapers, had new stories about the“something”. A mountain climber said he had seen the“Snow man” walk slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large man.
From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back pictures of large footprints. The pictures showed clearly that the Snowman walked on two legs. So it was not a bear or a monkey. Could it be an ape(猿) man? The mystery grew! And the mystery keeps growing. Someday we may find out just what it is that makes the large foot- prints.
