Native American Cultural Gathering at Chimney Rock this weekend
In 1995 a small group of Hopis traveled from their homes at Second Mesa, Ariz., to Chimney Rock. A loosely formed group in Pagosa Springs offered to provide a few tents and meals for the Hopis while they were here. With the support of Glenn Raby and the USFS Pagosa Ranger District, on Sept. 16, 1995, Eldon Kenyamawa and 18 other Hopi singers and dancers presented the Rainbow Dance to an audience of several hundred people. Those who were there possibly witnessed the first time puebloan songs had been heard and puebloan dances had been seen at Chimney Rock in over 900 years. Since then, close to 1,000 native peoples have returned to Chimney Rock to share their traditions with the public.
