Riverton Area: Site of Two Historic Mounatain Man Rendezvous
The area around present-day Riverton was home to two rendezvous, in 1830 and 1838. Lending the modern event a particularly historic air, the camp used today is the same one used over 150 years ago. Pitch your teepee or modern tin-teepee under the same cottonwoods as the real mountain men did (or update tradition by staying in an area hotel). Then venture out for knife- and tomahawk-throwing contests and demonstrations, crafts, kids games and campfire singing.
Support the 1838 Mountain Man Rendezvous
The annual reenactment of the 1838 Rendezvous is part the effort to draw attention to the history and romance of the area. Reenactors, or “buckskinners have done their part for the site, but the organization is presently in need of more members who are creative, energetic and love history. They need active members who care how the world sees Wyoming’s ancient landscape and early history. “We have a lot to do and we need help, said an association member, “People come from all over the world to this site. European, South American, Canadian and Asian people visited the site this year and we can make their impression of American values more accurate by showing how important this site is to American history”.

Green River Rendezvous
Green River Rendezvous History
Sixteen Rendezvous were held during the years 1824-1840, the height of the Rocky Mountain Fur Trade when the beaver top hat was an essential part of every respectable urban man’s wardrobe. Of those 16 gatherings, six were located at the Green River Rendezvous site, eight miles west of Pinedale near Daniel, Wyoming. It was at this site where famous mountain men like Jim Bridger, Kit Carson, Thomas Fitzpatrick carved their legends and opened the way for settlement of the West and supplied lustrous beaver pelts for the fashion industries of Europe and the eastern United States. Trappers, travelers and Native American Indians all gathered to barter, sell and gamble away the pelts and skins they’d gathered through the winter from hard, dangerous labor. Guns, jewelry, supplies and other trade goods were also swapped. These original Rendezvous were the best opportunity to lay in supplies for the coming winter, renew acquaintances, tell tall tales, drink, laugh and get rowdy.
Green River Rendezvous Pageant
Sunday, 1:00 pm at the Pinedale Rodeo Grounds
The live, historical re-enactment has been a Pinedale area tradition since 1936 where community residents relive the original Green River Rendezvous of the 1800s. The rodeo grounds come alive with bearded, buck skinned trappers and mountain men of long ago as they gallop, holler, fight, boast, and trade and barter goods. Representatives of coming civilization are also on the scene: Eliza Spaulding and Narcissa Whitman, the first pioneer women to travel over South Pass, stroll in once again.
American Mountain Man & Plains Indian Encampment
Thursday – Sunday at the Museum of the Mountain Man
Activities, tours, and campfire talks on the historical significance of the Rocky Mountain Fur Trade provides entertaining and educational Rendezvous events for all ages, including free living history demonstrations of fur trapper and Plains Indian lifestyles, field trips, and children’s activities.
Prairie of the Mass
Sunday, 10:00 am at De Smet Monument, Daniel, Wyoming
The influence of Belgium-born Jesuit missionary, Father De Smet is realized at morning’s calm to celebrate the first ever Mass on the prairie near the original Rendezvous site on July 5, 1840 where thousands of Indians, trappers and fur traders gathered. The De Smet Monument was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 28, 1970.
Original Green River Rendezvous Site
Travel four miles north of Pinedale on US Highway 191, turn left on Green River Road, enter in at sign on right side of the road, drive up a bit, and walk on up.
By far, the site of the 1833, 1835, 1836, 1837, 1839, 1840 rendezvous is one of Pinedale’s most commanding scenes and was declared a U.S. National Historical Landmark in 1961. It’s no wonder six of the sixteen Rocky Mountain Rendezvous were located right here in the Upper Green River Valley where Horse Creek meets the Green.
Trader’s Row
Located on the east end of Pine Street/US Highway 191.

Buy and sell goods Thursday through Saturday from 9:00 am – 6:00 pm and Sunday 9:00 am – 3:00 pm. It will have lots of rendezvous fun with activities such as the Candy Canon blasting throughout the day, a bow shoot for all ages, a frying pan toss, and a “Tell a Tall Tale” contest.

About the Knappton Cove Heritage Center
The mission of the Knappton Cove Heritage Center is to preserve, interpret and promote the history of the US Columbia River Quarantine Station – listed on the Register of National Historic Places.
About the Lewis & Clark Expedition
Captain Meriwether Lewis and Captain William Clark were sent by President Thomas Jefferson to explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory, and to seek the best route to the Pacific Ocean through what we now call the Pacific Northwest. During their voyage of 1804 – 1806, they led the “Corps of Northwestern Discovery” overland from St. Louis to the mouth of the Columbia River, and back again. With no means for resupply, the Corps – a U.S. Army unit of 31 men, accompanied by Sacagawea and her infant child, Jean Baptiste – needed to use a diverse combination of skills, along with the right tools, in order to survive.
Mark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Lewis and Clark Living History at Knappton Cove in July in Naselle, Washington.

Join us for the Annual Rocky Mountain National Rendezvous on July 13-20, 2019 at the Historic Quarter Circle Circle Ranch, in the Cochetopa Basin, 48 miles east of Gunnison, Colorado. The Rocky Mountain National Rendezvous is a celebration of life on the western frontier during the early 1840s, patterned after the fur-trade rendezvous of that time. Many people spend a great deal of time, effort and money to have suitable pre-1840 clothing and gear, and travel many miles to enjoy the atmosphere of a “Living History” pre-1840 rendezvous. Please do not spoil it for them.
This year’s Rocky Mountain National Rendezvous to be at approximately 9,300 feet, so for those of you who have difficulty with altitude, you might want to check online to see if there is anything you can do to be more comfortable before and when you get there. You will need to acclimate.
Rocky Mountain National Rendezvous welcomes everybody across the world and invites everyone to come and experience a primitive rendezvous in the Rocky Mountains. Come enjoy yourselves, play, laugh, tell stories, trade and re-create the history of the Fur Trade. We look forward to seeing all of our old friends and meeting new ones.
Colorado is hosting this year’s RMNR on the historic Historic Quarter Circle Circle Ranch, in the Cochetopa Basin, east of Gunnison, Colorado. We have a full slate of events planned with lots of prizes for competitions, raffle items and seminars. There are many volunteers helping to make this a great rendezvous. If you can help us, please SIGN UP AT THE GATE. We especially need volunteers on the ranges. Our goal is to be safe and make sure everyone has fun!

Great Forts Folle Avoine Fur Trade Rendezvous
2019-07-25 - 2019-07-28 | Forts Folle Avoine Historical Park, 8500 County Road U, Danbury, WI, 54830, United States
2019 Forts Folle Avoine Fur Trade Rendezvous

Rate This Event

Join us here at The Great Forts Folle Avoine Fur Trade Rendezvous on July 25-28, 2019 at the Forts Folle Avoine Historic Park in Danbury, Wisconsin as dozens of fur trade camps fill Sayer’s Field and Trader’s Row. Represented is a variety of unique characters, all gathering together after a rigorous winter of trapping. As was true two hundred years ago, goods are “traded”, stories told, and fun times enjoyed by rendezvous campers, traders, and visitors.

Forts Folle Avoine Fur Trade Rendezvous
When the fur traders packed their canoes with precious furs and began the arduous journey north after the long cold winter at Forts Folle Avoine, their destination was Grand Portage. There, for a few weeks before preparing for the return trip, they could relax as they took part in the much anticipated Rendezvous celebration.
The Great Folle Avoine Fur Trade Rendezvous includes demonstrations of period skills including black powder shooting, archery and tomahawk throwing.

About Forts Folle Avoine
Over 200 years ago, the North West Company and the XY Company traveled along the Yellow River where they built fur trading posts, now known as Fort Folle Avoine. When the North West Company first arrived, they built a trading post where the Indian population and the French explorers bartered for furs, primarily beaver fur which was incredibly cherished among the European market. Fur traders traveled hundreds of miles and portaged in every direction anticipating the rendezvous, also known as a meeting place where trading and bartering took place. After furs and other products, were traded, the furs were then carried along the Yellow River onto Montreal and then eventually to Europe. At the end of the 1805 trading season, the fur traders loaded their canoes, traveled along the Yellow River and never returned to Fort Folle Avoine. What sets Fort Folle Avoine apart or makes this place so unique is that during the 1800’s the French explorers stayed in this area around two years, where most trading posts were built and lived in for about a year and then abandoned and moved on down the river.

Gather Where History was Made
Rendezvous in the Sault takes place on the very grounds where the first European settlement in Michigan was created when the Sainte Marie du Sault mission was founded in 1668. This is the same area where John Jacob Astor’s American Fur Company, which was chartered in 1808, had its post in Sault Ste. Marie. It is the very site where Fort De Repentigny was constructed to provide refuge for French voyageurs in 1750, and where, in 1822, Colonel Hugh Brady arrived with Henry Rowe Schoolcraft and established Fort Brady. Before all that, it was the main gathering place of the Anishanaabeg where the adjacent land served as the Wadjiwong (Great Hill) Ancient Burial Grounds; one of the earliest known Anishinaabeg graveyards.
