Man of the Cliff is a two-day community festival centered around rugged Lumberjack-style games and a benefit concert.  All funds raised support First Descents and their local adventure programs for young adults impacted by cancer.  Man of the Cliff welcomes more than 200 competitors and 3,000 attendees for a weekend of outdoor activities, live music, delicious food and drink, and tons of family fun.  This year, we hope to raise $50,000 to support First Descents.

Join us Saturday from 5pm to 8:30pm for our first ever FREE concert! Live music will kick off with performances by The Drunken Hearts and Rebirth Brass Band so don’t forget to stick around on Saturday night. Your $10 donation gets you access to Man of the Cliff and the Saturday night concert.

Don’t miss this perfect weekend of axe throwing, keg tossing, speed chopping, archery, live music and so much more!
