Mountain Men / Buckskins Encampment

Watch the mountain men perform live demonstrations of how these men once lived and made a living. How they hunted, trapped, traded and forged for food and a way of life. Hatchet throwing and flint lock shooting demonstrations. They will camp just like many men in the 1840s did. Enjoy them for a historical live event.
