This is a truly unique experiential blend of community, solo time, ritual, and interaction for men.  Honoring Creation, Creator, indigenous spirituality, and the many ways of being a man, CrossRoads is a time and place of renewal, recovery, and discovery for men of many ages and stages.  Beautiful James Park is in the shadow of the Continental Divide and has cabins, bunks, and bathrooms.
