Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti - Dozens of names refer to the existence of a similar creature. Native American tribes have hundreds of stories that have been passed down from generation to generation. The Cherokee has one such story of a beast called Tsu'kalu, who is said to be a forest-dwelling giant living in solitude covered in hair from head to foot. Many believe that the government is aware of Sasquatch, and to protect financial interests, they choose to cover up what they know. Many other theories permeate the landscape of cryptozoology, yet no scientific proof has ever been documented. Is it real? Could there be something out there yet to be discovered living only in myth, legend, and lore?

A fun-filled weekend of camping, hiking, and a search for a lost gold mine turns into a nightmare for five friends when they stumble upon an ancient evil hidden away for centuries in the snow-covered mountains of the Colorado Rockies.

Michelle has put the nightmare of her past behind her and moved on. Just as she's getting settled in to a new life in a new town, mysterious events begin to unfold that seem eerily familiar. She is forced to make a decision that could thrust her back into the nightmare that has haunted her all this time.
