TrailFest 2007

Join us for a day of world-class adventure and fun on the Continental Divide Trail during TrailFest 2007 — a celebration of and benefit for the completion and protection of the 3,100 mile Continental Divide Trail.

Free guided “Get on the Divide” adventures will let you experience some of the most spectacular mountains, panoramic views and beautiful landscapes on the Trail.

You get to choose your mode of transport…hiking, mountaineering, mountain biking, llama and goat trekking…and the level of difficulty that's right for you.

Visit outdoor booths, introduce kids to Kids AdventureFest, and share stories of your day with friends and family at the CDT basecamp in downtown Buena Vista. Later, have dinner at Taste of the Trail and enjoy a free concert in the park.

PLEASE NOTE: To participate in Get on the Divide Adventures, the Pancake Breakfast and Taste of the Trail, you must fill out the TrailFest Registration Form found on cdtrail.org/trailfest.

*** JUST UPDATED -- STAY IN BUENA VISTA THE ENTIRE WEEKEND! ***

Alpine Orchestra - Zebulon Pike Ensemble
Sunday, July 22 3:00PM
Buena Vista Mountain Heights Baptist

This concert will focus on mostly 18th century Americana type music. The Zebulon Pike Ensemble is a trio of acoustic musicians celebrating Pike's explorations of southern Colorado. Colorado musicians Tom Munch of Pueblo, Don Richmond of Alamosa and Rex Rideout of Conifer have just released a CD titled "A Voyage of Such Nature: Acoustic Music in Celebration of the Pike Expedition." The dozen songs on the album correspond with twelve points of interest on Pike's journey in Kansas and Colorado in 1806 and 1807.

No admission charge but contributions are welcomed to help defray expenses.
