Yeti Ford: Alpine Adventure was a spectacular, community-focused winter art exhibit hosted by Betty Ford Alpine Gardens, featuring larger than life yeti sculptures transformed into unique masterpieces by local schoolchildren. This exhibit was an exciting collaboration between the Gardens, Town of Vail’s Art in Public Places, and multiple local schools, designed to provide students with the invaluable experience of creating large-scale public art. The Yetis were on display daily from dawn to dusk through March, and celebrated the exceptional talent within the Vail community.
Visitors could download the map of the Yetis locations around the Gardens to find them all.


Visitors could download their own personal Yeti Scavenger Hunt card to join the hunt for the Yetis and much more!




In partnership with the Town of Vail’s Art in Public Places.
