Aug 9, 2012 through Aug 12, 2012
Aug 9-12, enjoy the 28th annual Santa Fe Mountain Man Trade Fair, a free event for the whole family. In the style of a mountain man rendezvous, this event transforms the Palace of the Governors Courtyard into an 1830s setting, where modern-day mountain men (and women!) rendezvous, exhibit and sell their wares. Blacksmithing, hide tanning, beadwork, weaponry and more are on display. Special presentations and al fresco talks each day. Enter through the Blue Gate on Lincoln Avenue. Sponsored by Los Compadres, a support group of the New Mexico History Museum/Palace of the Governors.
