Open Lands Sasquatch Hunt

SasquatchHunt

A nine-foot-tall Sasquatch has been spotted on open lands. From 09/11/2020 through 11/20/2020 Sasquatch will be moving through Helena’s trails for an eleven week long, city wide scavenger hunt.

Who knows where Sasquatch will be every week? No one knows for sure, but the Helena Parks and Recreation team is out on the trails and has a pretty good idea when he’s on the move. If you have any questions, feel free to contact them: 406-447-8077.

What should I do if I find him? Take a selfie! And don’t forget to tag @HelenaParksRecreation and use the hashtag #SQUATCHOUT to enter our photo contest.

When is Sasquatch on the move? Typically, he likes to find a new trail on Fridays to make everyone’s weekend adventures a bit more interesting. Check our social media every week to get clues on where he’s off to next.

Where do I start? Try downloading an app or visiting a website like AllTrails.com that has information on popular hikes and trailhead locations around Helena. Basecamp has paper maps for sale if that’s more your style. Once you are on the trails, markers will direct you, making it easy to stay on the course you’ve chosen. If you’ve never hiked or biked before, getting started doesn’t need to be intimidating. Remember that everyone is there to enjoy themselves so don’t worry about the destination and enjoy the journey!

Why should I participate? Sasquatch knows Helena’s open lands better than anyone. Pay attention to where he’s been and try to figure out where he’s going. You will find brand new trails you didn’t know existed before – maybe even a new favorite. No tickets, entry fee or reservation needed to 910participate – get outside and have some fun!
