SOLD OUT: HYP Gates of the Mountains Bat Tour

  • Gates of the Mountains Marina 3131 Gates of the Mountains Road Helena, MT, 59602 United States (map)

Join HYP on August 25 as we head out to see the nightly migration of one of Montana's largest bat colonies! We'll be tagging along on an evening boat tour with FWP wildlife biologists in tow to watch the bats on their way out of their canyon roosts in Gates of the Mountains. We will meet in the Planet Fitness parking lot at 7:15 p.m. to carpool to the Gates of the Mountains marina on Upper Holter Lake, with the tour going from 8:15 to 10:15 and an expected return to Helena around 11:00. Be sure to bring a flashlight to see the bats as they fly by!

This event is limited to 20 participants. Tickets are $5 for HYP members and $10 for non-members.
