On this hike we will monitor for unauthorized motorized use into the monument, you will learn about the history of Browns Canyon, why it ranks as one of the best areas in the region for climate resiliency and why now is more important than ever to stand up for our public lands.

DRINK DARK. PROTECT THE NIGHT.
We’re excited to announce a partnership between Soulcraft Brewing and Friends of Browns Canyon to protect local dark skies. Throughout the month of September, Soulcraft will donate a portion of proceeds from every Dark Matter beer purchase to support Friends of Browns Canyon’s Dark Sky initiative. Friends of Browns Canyon led more than two years of work that culminated in an International Dark Sky Park designation for Browns Canyon National Monument, protecting the exceptional quality of the area’s night skies (Browns Canyon National Monument).

Browns Canyon isn’t just an incredible place to hike, raft, fish and explore during the day — it’s also an amazing place to see the stars after the sun goes down (DarkSky Colorado). And what better beer to help support dark skies than Dark Matter?
