Walking Tour to "The Thing"

  • Galt Museum & Archives 502 1 Street South Lethbridge, AB, T1J 1Y4 Canada (map)

Hidden in the middle of the Lethbridge river valley, accessible only by foot sits a very distinctive structure. It’s believed that a group of people collected debris from across the Oldman River Valley and composed it into a rugged building. Some of the unofficial names include, The Thing and The Rust Rock Cathedral. We will be walking to this structure together, discussing the history and lore of its creation.

Water bottles and good walking shoes are recommended. No washrooms are accessible on the tour. Be prepared to walk about 1 km at a slow pace. Meet at Fort Whoop-Up.
