Are We There, Yeti?

My friends are always coming up with great ideas. I've never felt like I could match them... until today! I just drew up the plans for something great! If you promise not to tell, I'll let you in on the secret...

I'm going to make a mechanical yeti! Not only are my friends sure to be freaked out when they see it, but when they get over that, I know they'll be impressed!

I need thick yeti fur from the ice thistle yeti to start with. Will you help? You'll find them to the southeast.
