There have been some disappearances in the area. The rangers are hanging missing persons posters. One of them mapped out where the people disappeared. He suspects there is more going on than they think as there is a pattern to the disappearances.
The other ranger scoffs theorizing that the missing snowboarder probably ran off to France to get away from his girlfriend. Yeah, because that is so cliche. I'm so sick of all the kids running off to France.
With their trail cameras, the scientists catch some shots of what appears to be a Yeti. Since one of them fell into the Yeti cave, and they discovered dead bodies in there, they think it would be best to leave.
But greed and notoriety are rampant in the science world as it is everywhere. One of the other scientists doesn't want someone else getting rich off their discovery. Why not get proof of the beast so they can have their deserved fame and fortune? Um, don't you already have proof from the cameras in the woods? And why aren't you thinking about getting help so no one else is mauled by a Yeti?.
The problem with this type of movie is that people tend to have no frame of reference or knowledge of pop culture and creatures of legend. In real life, I would expect one of them to say, "I know this sounds crazy, but that looks like a Yeti!" Instead we get an argument over whether or not it's a bear. Later one mentions Yeti's, but it's still considered ridiculous.
I was hoping this would be a remake of the 1970s Snowbeast movie starring Bo Svenson. Like that era's horror films, it's a guy in a Yeti suit. I wouldn't have minded except they made the chest area black so it looks like he's wearing a bra. The movie is similar in production values and storyline to something you'd see on the Syfy channel.
