Hugh Glass Rendezvous

The Annual Hugh Glass Rendezvous celebrates the history of frontiersman and fur trader Hugh Glass, who is known far and wide for surviving a grizzly attack at the forks of the Grand River in 1823. Step back in history more than two centuries and walk upon the site where history was made, where the man became a legend on the banks of the Grand River and Shadehill Reservoir, at Hugh Glass Park. Events include the primitive mountain man rendezvous camp, unique black powder shoots, special presentations, featured speakers, musical entertainment, youth day games and more.In 2023, we celebrated the bicentennial of the attack.
