Description
The South Platte Valley Historical Society is creating a one-hundred acre history park on the north side Fort Lupton, Colorado with facilities dedicated to education and historic interpretation including annual rendezvous at nearby Fort Lancaster/Lupton.
Historically, all of the American fur trade rendezvous' were held in present day Wyoming, Utah, and Idaho. No rendezvous were ever held in Colorado, much less at Fort Lancaster. The purpose of each rendezvous held at the South Platte Valley Historic Park is to recreate the look and feel of the late fur trade era, rather than to recreate a specific event. The Tallow River Trappers in conjunction with the South Platte Valley Historical Society holds three major rendezvous throughout the year. The first rendezvous of the year is called the Frozen Toes Rendezvous and is held the last weekend in February. The Lancaster Restoration Rendezvous is held Memorial Day Weekend and finally, the Trapper Days Rendezvous is held on the weekend following Labor Day and coincides with the town of Fort Lupton's Trapper Days Celebration. Activities at these events include shooting, tomahawk and knife throwing on the range, a woods walk, and fire starting contests.
Some digital effects were applied to this original image after the photograph was made. No electrons were harmed during the transition. Ordered images will not contain the FAA watermark. Some of the proceeds from the sale of this image will be donated to the South Platte Valley Historical Society.
