Terror of the Abominable Snowman — James Baack; Eric S. Brown

A University of Chicago expedition into the mountains of Tibet and Nepal returns to America with a triumphal prize: A living Yeti - the fabled ‘Abominable Snowman' of the Himalayas! Heading to Chicago from the polar north, the expedition's aged Hercules cargo plane becomes lost in a blinding, white-out blizzard, the most severe snowstorm in over 100 years! The doomed aircraft crashes near the Wisconsin north woods town of Eagle River, a snowbound place totally isolated from the rest of the world by the fierce storm… A place that feels just like home for the captured Yeti, now freed from his constraints by the wreckage of the plane. The savage, but wily beast surveys his new world, where he is certain to hold sway… And where the body count will soon begin to rise.
