FREE and open to the public! Celebrate National Public Lands Day at Travelers’ Rest State Park with “Hunting and Gathering: The Tradition Continues”
As fall approaches, many Montanans begin to head to our public lands in search of big game - the same game animals that sustained the Lewis and Clark Expedition and the Native American people of this area for thousands of years.
Local experts will be on hand to demonstrate and discuss historical firearms of the Lewis and Clark Expedition and hunting techniques and equipment necessary for success in that time; the making of parfleche containers to store and transport food; the use and history of the atlatl; and root collecting and drying techniques.
