The Bear Gulch Cave is closed seasonally to protect a colony of Townsend’s Big-eared bats. For specific information about dates that the cave is open, check our Bear Gulch Cave Information. The bats are listed as a species of special concern, and they use the cave as a maternity colony in the summer and as a place to hibernate in the winter. If the Bear Gulch Cave is closed and you would still like to visit a cave, plan on going to the Balconies Cave on the west side of the park.
