Is an archived U.S. State Department document outlining how to hunt Yetis proof the government knows the creatures exist?
In 1960, famed explorer Edmund Hillary, along with a group of scientists, went into the wilds of Nepal to find a Yeti.
The rules they had to follow to catch a Yeti had been clearly outlined, and those rules are preserved in the National Archives.
So why did the government care how people tracked Yetis? Is it a conspiracy that proves officials at the highest levels of government knew the Yeti exists?
The truth is much more complicated, and involves Cold War politics and the U.S.’s desperate attempts to stop what they feared was the global spread of Communism.
This episode tracks the truth about this strange archived Yeti document at a time when “Yeti fever” and “red fears” converged.
