It's a fancy place that oldtimers dream about. . . . Some said the "valley was full of gold and some said it was hot as hell owing to the warm springs. . . . It had a wicked name too, for at least a dozen folks went in and never came out. . . . Indians said it was the home of devils. . . . In these tantalizing words the late Lord Tweedsmuir (John Buchan), novelist and onetime Governor General of Canada, pictured the "Headless Valley" on the remote South Nahanni River. Behind Buchan's lines lay 40 years of mystery, yet little has been done to explore the fantastic legends that came from the 200-mile gorge in the limestone mountains, 300 miles east of Whitehorse, Yukon.

Perhaps the people found "headless" did find gold and someone killed them for it, staged it as to create a legend so scary that no one else would follow to look for gold.

I would say that the disappearances have mostly to do with the dangerous terrain more than any kind of alien. Most people go hiking without being properly prepared for the environment which is likely the case for most of the disappearances at the Nahanni.
