Introduction

Introduction

The legends of Sasquatch go back beyond recorded history, you can hear tales of seven-foot-tall hairy creatures stalking the woods, occasionally unknowingly scaring campers, lumberjacks, hikers and festival goers alike from the Similkameen Tribe people in the area.

Sasquatch is known by many titles although the name Yeti & Bigfoot is generally attributed to the mountainous Western region of North America the common name Sasquatch comes from the Salish Sasquits, while the Algonquin of the north-central region of the continent refer to a Witiko or Wendigo. Other nations tell of a large creature much like a man but imbued with special powers and characteristics. The Ojibway of the Northern Plains believed the Rugaru appeared in times of danger and other nations agreed that the hairy apparition was a messenger of warning, telling man to change his ways. While we can’t promise you will see an actual Sasquatch on your visit to our festival we can promise you a thrilling adventure of a lifetime that dives deep into the aboriginal culture thru song and dance along the Similkameen river and Valley.

We do not discriminate.
We encourage and foster a safe and beautiful experience for all those in attendance.

Location

About the Site

The Similkameen people have a history with the land that spans thousands of years in what is now Washington State and the Province of British Columbia. The Similkameen People were originally nomadic people that moved from location to location, mainly due to the ever-changing availability of foods and climates .. we intend to honor them in celebration during the 4 days on the land.. 

We demand you respect the use of the site, pack out what you pack in, zero tolerance for abusive behavior of any sort.
