The latest treasure hunt in GTA Online has dropped in this week’s event update, and this guide has all the details you need to find the Yeti location, and unlock the Yeti Outfit in your wardrobe.
As with all GTA Online treasure hunts, the process consists of multiple steps, but thankfully for once, this Yeti Hunt 2023 is just six steps long and can be easily completed in a few minutes.
How To Unlock The Yeti Outfit In Grand Theft Auto Online
Before you proceed to the Yeti hunt location, make sure you have a vehicle that can make its way around the Cassidy Creek area in Blaine County. You’ll be traversing a large area, and it would help to be relatively mobile. The Oppressor Mk II is your best bet, but feel free to take whatever vehicle you can afford.
The ideal time to embark on the quest for the Yeti is after 9PM GTA time, if only for the sake of efficiency. You’ll see why later in this guide.

Next, proceed towards the area shown on the map in the image above. Once in the vicinity, you will see a prompt onscreen:
“Investigate the Chiliad wilderness ? to search for clues of an unknown creature. Put an end to its terror to earn a bonus reward.”
The minimap will also display a large circle centered by a question mark.
As you near the circle, a text message will pop up on your phone from Tanner:
“Hey. You a hunter? You better be. Cuz there’s something in those woods. And it ain’t a bear. Trust me. Damn thing nearly killed me once. They’ll say you’re crazy till you get its hide. Then you’ll be laughing all the way to the bank.”
Once in the target area, consult the map in the image above to easily locate the first of five clues. Head to each of the Yeti clue locations in turn. For an idea of exactly what you’re looking for, see the images below.

When Does The Yeti Spawn In GTA Online?
Once you’ve investigated the fifth and final clue, you must either remain within or return to the circular investigative zone between 9PM and 6AM in-game time. If you found and investigated all the clues before 9PM, you’ll have to wait till then, or come back.
“The Yeti from the Chiliad wilderness has come for you. Defeat it to earn a unique reward.”
At this point, the Yeti will spawn in the distance and begin charging towards you. Avoid getting hit, as it is a one-shot not unlike being smacked by the Beast.
The best weapon to put the Yeti down quickly is the RPG, which can take two to four shots. The Railgun also takes several rounds to drop the Yeti. Some people have reported that the Shotgun with explosive rounds is a one-shot on the Yeti. And there’s always Sticky Bombs.
If you’re still having trouble, note that the Yeti won’t cross the water, so put a stream between it and you, and fire away with impunity.
Once the Yeti is down, a bonus 50K GTA$ will be credited directly into your Maze Bank account. This is over and above the 50K GTA$ earned over the course of investigating the five clues.

Died To The Yeti In GTA Online
If the Yeti successfully killed you, it will despawn. Not to worry, it will spawn again and you won’t have to carry out the clue investigation all over again. If you are still within the 9PM to 6AM GTA time window, just leave and re-enter the circle. It can take as many as three in-game hours to respawn.
If the Yeti Hunt is not spawning, simply wait for the next window. Remember that an in-game day in GTA Online is 48 minutes in the real world.
If you get disconnected from the server while hunting the Yeti, it may not respawn again in your new session. Simply wait a full in-game day for the next spawn window.
Bear in mind that the Yeti Hunt event ends Thursday, January 4, 2024 when the regular GTA Online weekly reset usually happens.
