They join up with a expedition (lead by French game hunter john Pierre) who are going up the mountain to hunt the creature who everybody believes is a yeti but the doctor. Halfway up the slope they are attacked by the creature who is an ice warrior not a yeti. During the attack john is killed and jenny is wounded.
