Come prepared for very cold nights. The site is in a bowl-type meadow with four canyons that lead down into it. there is a small river and four major springs.
A map will be printed soon, along with a postable, copyable "Howdy Folks" flyer and information/invitation sheet.
Please feel free to spread this invitation by whatever means are available.
Tres Piedres is about 30 miles nw of Taos on Hwy 64, the site altitude is just over 9000 ft. Bring every good thing, the more prepared we are when we arrive, the easier, more smoothly everything flows. above all, travel safely, see you here!!
For those who are truly new to this gathering... On July Fourth, beginning in the early morning and extending thru the high noon hour, we ask for a meditative, contemplative silence to consider and give honor to all those who have walked the path of peace and to hope, pray, and wish for, and to imagine a world in harmony and peace...
