On September 19, 2026, our community will come together once again for the 2nd Annual Hike for Hope — a powerful day of connection, remembrance, healing, and action in support of suicide prevention and mental well-being in Blaine County.

Hosted by The Crisis Hotline in partnership with the Suicide Prevention Coalition of TogetherWe and the Love Like Ky Foundation, Hike for Hope is more than a walk-it’s a message of hope.

Whether you’re hiking in honor of someone you love, supporting a friend, representing your organization, or simply looking for a way to make a difference, you’ll find a welcoming place here.
