 |naaaaah.  It was 1925 and it refers to Yeti sights ("tall, naked
 |figure tugging at rhododendron bushes") in Nepal.

 |  Tombazi did not believe in the yeti, thinking the figure he saw
 |  was a traveling hermit. In 1925, he wrote a book about his
 |  experiences called Account of a Photographic Expedition to the
 |  Southern Glaciers of Kangchenjunga in the Sikkim Himalaya
