Where is Earthworks?

Earthworks 2006 will be held at the Cal-Wood Environmental Education Center, in the Rocky Mountains about 20 miles northwest of Boulder, Colorado.

Lodge at Cal Wood

The 1040-acre site includes hiking trails, forests, ponds, streams, an old homestead, and an abandoned mica mine. Active populations of deer, elk, mountain lions, black bears, bobcats, and numerous species of birds reside at Cal-Wood.

We spend a lot of time outdoors during the workshop! Participants can stay in Cal-Wood's log cabins or can camp in their own tents. Shower and bathroom facilities are located in the main lodge, approximately 30 yards from the cabins. Each cabin is equipped with 8 bunk beds, lights, modern propane stoves, and a front deck with benches. Families are welcome. Please contact us for details.
