The sculpture will remain standing until it gets too warm or the monster becomes too unstable.

Mckinley Hackl says the snow monster is part of making walking through the winter city a spectacle.

“It’s awesome that people are able to showcase their talent in the city to get people to come outside. It’s really fun to watch.”

A snow art sculpture team spent the majority of a Saturday working on the yeti.

The yeti will be getting his fair share of nutritious deliciousness from the Canadian Colada fruit smoothie he is holding.
