In 4 months of traveling across Canada, down the east coast of the USA and west from Florida to California and north to British Columbia, this campground stands out above all the rest we have visited in every category. Excellent stay.

Where is it?

The Gila River Festival occurs at a variety of locations in the Cliff-Gila Valley and in Silver City.

---

Scheduled for September 18 ­ to 21, 2008, the fourth annual Gila River Festival is an opportunity to celebrate our beloved Gila River as a source of inspiration.

The festival will bring together experts, artists and scientists from many disciplines, to celebrate the Gila River through creative expression. Through rock art, nature writing, field sketching, weaving, songwriting, performance and photography, we will bridge the arts and sciences through active discussion and demonstration.

The festival format will include intensive workshops, a keynote speaker, lectures, hikes, and performances over a four day period. For more information, visit www.gilaconservation.org.

To get involved with planning for next year’s festival, contact Melanie Gasparich at director@ugwa.org or 575.535.2308.
