Historical Blacksmithing

The Forge is closed

Unfortunately, Park Administration at Spring Mountain Ranch has declined to host blacksmithing on park property going forward. The park has cited wildfire concerns as grounds to not offer blacksmithing. The decision is final.

We are looking for a new home for the forge and will keep you updated on a new location.
