Synopsis:
Clark and Lois visit a ski resort. While on the slopes they encounter a gang of fur smugglers. Superman apprehends them and finds a murder victim. The snow around the dead man shows no tracks other than giant bird prints. Some guests suspect the skier was killed by a legendary death-bird. Superman exposes the hoax and the killer, Ted Swan, who used the legend to cover his fur smuggling operations.
