About the event
Learn how Helena became the “Queen City of the Rockies” on this walking tour of historic Last Chance Gulch. Stroll down Helena’s original main street to see how a rowdy gold camp transformed into a capital city. Along our route, admire the ornate buildings flaunting gold rush fortunes and boomtown swagger. Discover how Helena grew from log cabins and wooden shacks into a city built not just of brick and stone, but of ambition, wealth…and some deceit too.
