After getting lunch yesterday at the Burning Boar BBQ, which will be featured on Mid-Willamette Explorer next moth, I headed to Champoeg State Park to check out the Fur Trapper's Encampment event. Those that hosted the event were clad in pioneer-era clothing and featured anything from old-style canvas tents to flintlocks. Out of all the items that were shown off, my favorite was the hand-mad birch bark canoe which used white cedar boards to line the inside. Below are some of the photos from the event.
