There's a Yeti in the Garden

  • When: From Tuesday, January 13, 2026 -  10:00 am

  • Location: JC Raulston Arboretum at NC State University, 4415 Beryl Road, Raleigh, NC 27606

Come ready to search the gardens to find their hiding spots. Each Yeti will have its own hiding spot, so you have two Yetis to find in the gardens!

We aren't passing out any clues or directions to follow — all you need is your sense of adventure and your eagle eyes! Once you discover the Yeti with the treasure chest, scan the nearby QR code to hear a special message from our Yetis. Then, take an item or bring an item to trade from the Yeti's treasure chest!

The Yetis will be moving around the gardens moving to new locations on Tuesdays — January 20, January 27 and February 3. Make sure to come out and find all of the hiding spots before the Yetis leave on Sunday, February 8!

The Yetis love all winter weather, so "The Hunt" is on rain, snow or shine during the JCRA's current garden hours (Mondays–Fridays 9:00 am–4:30 pm and Saturdays–Sundays: 10:00 am–5:00 pm)!
