Highlander Pegasus
The second-largest format is named after a constellation in the northern sky, named after the winged horse Pegasus in Greek mythology. It is easily recognisable because it is dominated by a prominent asterism known as the Great Square.
During your three days and two nights under the stars, Kalispell will offer you an approximately 30 mile long Adventure of a Lifetime as the first Kalispell HIGHLANDERs.
