Methow Headwaters Music Festival

By Jack Brummet, Travel Ed.

We went to an amazing celebration today [July 2nd, north of Twisp] for the Methow Headwaters group fighting the folks who want to build the Flagg Mountain open copper pit at the top of the watershed. It was brimming with small town love and fellowship.

There were BBQ roasted pigs, free beer from the local breweries in Winthrop and Twisp, non-stop bands and solo acts. We all brought side dishes and a few hundred of us had a gas. It was wonderful and inspirational. Not just for the cause, but for the strong and warm small town vibe.
