As you may have guessed, this Fortnite challenge will require a bit of wandering around to find all three hiding spots in a single match. On top of all that, you'll have to complete this Fortnite challenge without dying.
So, keep reading to learn how to hide in a Hay Stack, a Leaf Pile, and a Giant Snowball in a single match.
How to hide in a hay stack
Hiding in a Hay Stack is extremely simple if you know where to look. Hay Stacks are found as inanimate objects around the Chapter 4 map.
Thankfully, Hay Stacks have set spawn points, so you should be able to find one pretty easily. You should start your search by heading to Frenzy Fields in the centre of the map. Here, you should find plenty of Hay Stacks in the immediate vicinity.
Once you've found a Hay Stack, simply walk up to it and press the interact button. You should see your character hide in there, which is the first part of the challenge complete.
How to hide in a leaf pile
Leaf Piles are also fairly easy to find around the map in Fortnite Chapter 4. Simply open up your map and look for an area with autumnal colours (orange and yellow).
These areas are places where Leaf Piles are most likely to be located. Once you've hidden in a Hay Stack, we recommend heading here.
When you find a Leaf Pile, you'll need to do the same thing as you did with the Hay Stack. Walk up to one and press the interact button to hide in the pile.
How to hide in a Giant Snowball
Hiding in a Giant Snowball is perhaps the most difficult of the three activities to complete in this challenge, purely because they don't spawn naturally.
To create a Giant Snowball, you'll need to head to a snowy part of the map. Once there, start hitting the snow that's fallen on the ground. It should start to build up into a snowball the more you hit it.
Once the snowball has reached its maximum size, it will now be classed as a Giant Snowball. If you walk up to it and press the interact button, your character will hide inside it.
Now you know how to hide in a Hay Stack, a Leaf Pile, and a Giant Snowball. Of course, the tricky part of this challenge is to complete all of these actions in a single match.
For the best chance of completing this weekly challenge, we recommend staying in the northern part of the map as much as possible. This is the only place where you can find snowy areas, so it makes sense to stay near here to keep your journeys as short as possible.
In addition, it's worth trying to complete this challenge in the No Build game mode. This will mean that enemy players won't get as much of a jump on you if you happen to come across some.
