Description of Event:
The crane festival hosts many activities in Monte Vista including workshops, movies, expert presentations, and a craft fair. The highlight of the festival is the opportunity for close-up views of thousands of cranes at the Monte Vista National Wildlife Refuge as they prance and display for each other, lift off en masse in the mornings, and return to their roosting spots at sunset. In addition to the cranes, many Canada Geese and ducks visit the wetlands of this high-altitude desert framed by 14,000 foot snow-covered mountain peaks. Photographic possibilities are endless when these avian visitors fill the skies over the wildlife refuge. Activities during the Monte Vista Crane Festival include interpreter led bus tours to view the cranes as well as field trips to the Baca National Wildlife Refuge and the Bureau of Land Management's Blanca Wetlands. Craft Fair Hours: Fri 10am-4pm, Sat 8am-4pm, Sun 9am-2pmInformation:
