Mountain Man Storytelling: Business in the Far West

Join us for an afternoon to learn about Bent's Fort, the Santa Fe Trail and THE PLAINS INDIAN Fur Trade, presented by our own Michael Schaubs.

Mr. Schaubs is a retired geologist with a lifelong passion for the fur trade. Inspired by childhood discoveries of artifacts in rural Wisconsin, he has maintained a deep interest in fur trade history and material culture. Since retirement, he has focused on studying fur trade inventories through a scientific lens. He shares his expertise as a living history interpreter, portraying a fur trader at events hosted by Bent’s Old Fort NHS, Fort Laramie NHS, Fort Uncompahgre, the Tesoro Cultural Center, and various schools and community groups.

Tickets are $10/person. For more information contact the Heritage Program at 303-839-1671.
