Rate This Event

 

Join us for the 41st Annual Jed Smith Mountain Men Tall Trees Rendezvous on June 28 – July 5, 2018 at the Del Norte Gun Club in Smith River, California, an event that brings black powder shooters and their families together from all over. This mountain man rendezvous is held at the Del Norte Rod & Gun Club, 1.5 miles up Rowdy Creek Road in Smith River. They have a variety of camping types available, along with a Trader’s Row. There will be shooting competitions for men, women & youth (ages 5 years and up).

Spectators are welcome to come visit the encampment and wander through Trader’s Row. You will see campers dressed in the clothing, and engaging in the handicrafts, of the mountain men era. Come and see how people used to live and work at the Jed Smith Mountain Men Tall Trees Rendezvous.

The week-long Jed Smith Mountain Men Tall Trees Rendezvous features competitions in black powder shooting, tomahawk throwing and archery. There are competitions for men, women, teens and children. Members of the public are invited to watch the contests.

The public is also invited to browse through Trader’s Row. Gunsmiths, bead crafters and bowyers will ply their wares, calling to mind a time when the fur trappers came down out of the hills to trade their pelts for salt, sugar, cornmeal and bacon.
