The 2026 Lost Hawk Rendezvous

The Lost Hawk Rendezvous invites visitors to step into the world of the Rocky Mountain fur trade, when trappers, traders, Indigenous families, merchants, and travelers gathered to exchange goods, share news, resupply, and reconnect after months spent across the mountains.

​

Today, Lost Hawk brings elements of that tradition to life through historic encampments, period clothing, traditional skills, live demonstrations, specialty vendors, and hands-on experiences.


Events Include -
