Knap-in Calendar

This is our most unique event of the year, featuring a variety of primitive skill demonstrators and knappers, set in an ancient hilltop enclosure surrounded by waterfalls. We will have an atlatl range, with ISACs Friday and Saturday and an open throw on Saturday only. RV and tent campsites are available in the park campground and primitive camping is offered to knappers, vendors, and demonstrators in another capacity. We plan to have at least one food vendor, and many other vendors of rock, crafts, and knapped items. Hope to see you there!
