Happy Bat Week, everyone!

The Grand Canyon is home to lots and lots of bats, and they do awesome things for its ecosystem. Check out our blog to learn more: https://hatchriverexpeditions.com/blog/freaky-friday-grand-canyon-bats/

Just make sure to give them (and all Grand Canyon wildlife) a respectful amount of space.

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na... !

Holy echolocation, Bat Fan!

Millions of bats call national parks home, representing more than 45 unique species. These winged wonders pollinate plants, devour insects, navigate by echolocation, and leave visitors marveling at their mysterious ways. Some migrate, while others hibernate, and all are facing threats of some kind.

This Bat Week, we're shining the Bat-Signal on these nocturnal creatures and the conservation efforts working to protect them around the world. Because when it comes to keeping ecosystems healthy, bats are the heroes we need, even if they prefer the night shift.

Coffee brewing, pancakes flipping, and the Colorado River flowing by. Just another morning in the Grand Canyon. 🥞☕️

A rowing trip through the Grand Canyon offers a different kind of quiet. Slower, more connected to the water, and a chance to take it all in one stroke at a time.

And just like that, the last of our boats have returned home safely from the trips of the season. Thank you to everyone who helped make it an amazing season and we can’t wait to see you all on the water next year!
