Families and &#8220;pilgrims&#8221; are welcome to visit and get a feel for the historic rendezvous encampments of the mountain men. The rendezvous camp and the fort and the historic park are open during the day. The rendezvous coincides with the <a class=\"blue\" href=\"http:\/\/fortluptonchamber.org\/trapper-days\/\" target=\"_New\">Trapper Day festivities<\/a> in the city of Fort Lupton. In the rendezvous area of the historic park there is a Traders Row that provides trade goods from the 1830s. At dusk, pre-1840 dress is required for everyone wanting to be in the rendezvous encampment.<\/p>\n<p>Being the spring rendezvous, the rendezvous camp area of the South Platte Valley Historic Park is greening up. Big leafy cottonwood trees provide shade and the fresh grassy areas provide a comfortable place to set up camp. Nearby, snowmelt is running down the Platte River. Non re-enactor visitors are welcome during the day, but at the end of the day only campers in pre-1840 clothing are allowed in the rendezvous area. There is a separate area for &#8220;Tin Teepees&#8221; and modern camps setups for those not in period attire.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px;\">Fort

While the original fort that Lancaster Lupton built has long been gone, a dedicated group of individuals began in 2003 to reconstruct the fort. The reconstructed Fort Lancaster, as it was known in its original period of operation, 1836-1844, was completed and dedicated in 2011.[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=&#8221;Read More&#8221;]\nA visit to Lancaster Lupton&#8217;s trade fort is an experience of going back in time to when an individual with a vision and entrepreneurial spirit took risks to establish a trade enterprise on the wild prairie along the front range of the Rocky Mountains. Lancaster Lupton first came to the area with a military expedition in 1835. By 1836 Lupton had resigned his commission and was bringing skilled craftsman and labor from the Mexican village of Taos north to build his trade fort. By 1837-38 he was trading with the Arapahoe and Cheyenne tribes. Come see his trade fort and walk through the inner plaza to visit the blacksmith and carpenter shops, living quarters, kitchen and food preparation rooms, trade rooms, cantina and storage room with historic artifacts.[\/su_spoiler][\/su_accordion]<\/p>\n<p><strong>About South Platte Valley Historic Park<\/strong><br \/>\nHistoric Fort Lupton (aka Fort Lancaster) and South Platte Valley Settlement Historic Park encompasses 97 acres of land along the South Platte River just northwest of the city of Fort Lupton, Colorado. The land consists of a large natural and camping area immediately along the river and a high bench of land where the original Fort Lancaster was located.[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=&#8221;Read More&#8221;]\nAlong the river, in groves of cottonwood trees are camping areas that can be used by Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops with reservations. These camping areas are also used by the re-enactment department of the SPVHS &#8211; the Tallow River Trappers &#8211; to hold periodic rendezvous events. Immediately along the river are nature areas that are home to deer, turkey, foxes and other animals and birds. At the north end of the historic park is a muzzleloading shooting range leased by the Fort Lupton Muzzleloading Club.<\/p>\n<p>Start your tour of the historic park at the re-creation of Fort Lancaster, which was in operation from 1836 to 1844. Move down the path and see the restored trapper cabin from the 1850s, which was originally located down along the Platte River in Adams County. Moving further down the path, your will see both the Independence School built in 1875 and the Donelson homestead house built in the 1860s. The Donelson House and the Independence School represent the settlement of the Platte Valley started by the early fur trappers and traders.[\/su_spoiler][\/su_accordion]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hosted by The Tallow River Trappers<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Tallow River Trappers is the living history branch of the South Platte Valley Historical Society, sponsor of the annual rendezvous. The Tallow River Trapper has their own campsite below Fort Lancaster in Fort Lupton, Colorado.
