This area is like stepping back in time. The men, women and children in this area live and dress as they did back in the 1800's. They sleep in tents and prepare all their foods on an open fire. This is such a great educational experience for the entire family. The encampment sits next to Yoctangee Lake and consists of working craftsmen such as a blacksmith, broom maker, dulcimer maker, just to name a few. There are many traders selling or trading their wares and you will find roaming musicians and display that will keep you entertained and occupied for quite some time.
