Since the former isn't an option right now, we'll have to setter with the latter. Let the reliving begin!
Itinerary Item Number One:
Attend Pagosa's Four Corners Folk Festival. Drive down Thursday evening, stay until Monday morning.
The main stage was in a tent with 1200 seats pre-set up |
- Best part: The music! The beer was pretty good too.
- Worst part: The dust. They watered the main roads every day but it was still a sneezefest.
- Lesson learned? If you're set to camp in the "vehicle free" area, do arrive during the time period when the shuttles are operating.
- Rating? 4 stars! (outta 5)
Unlike the Winnipeg Folk Festival, the Vehicle Free Camping area was a tiny area. |
The Main Stage |
The bigger surprise for us, was the proximity of everything. About 30 steps from where we camped, we could see the festival site, and what I thought at first was the beer tent. As it turns out, this is actually the main stage, and it was set up with chairs so that you didn't have to get rained on in the late afternoon. You also didn't have to carry around your chair (not that it was so far to carry) but some sort of bum pillow might be advised. The other really great thing about camping right on top of the festival ground, was that you could go back to your campsite and have a meal, and still hear the bands play! It was a great experience.
