Face The Frontier: An 18th Century Experience

September 14 @ 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM

$5.00

Groups will leave from the Martin’s Station parking lot at 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.

This is a one mile, easy to moderate, immersive walk. Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear.

Imagine finding yourself approaching a beacon of rest and resupply with nothing but the clothes on your back. You are miles, days, beyond the fringes of civilization and a wooden palisade is all the stands between you and the untamed wilderness. Danger lurks within the shadows, but opportunity arises each day. Meet the men and women of the western frontier who made this reality their own. Immerse yourself in the journey of those who traveled the trace.
