About the owner

How to get here
Mountain Crafts Gallery is located in the village of Red Feather Lakes, Colorado near the Colorado-Wyoming border. To reach our Gallery, take U.S. 287 north from Fort Collins, Colorado (or south from Laramie, Wyoming) to Livermore (about 20 miles). Turn west toward the mountains onto Red Feather Lakes Highway (you'll see the Post Office and "The Forks" restaurant). Continue west on Red Feather Lakes Highway about 24 miles to the turnoff to Red Feather Lakes village. Turn right on Prairie Divide Road (there's a turn lane there) and go about a quarter mile into the village. Take the first turn to the left (Hiawatha) and you'll see our Gallery at the top of the hill on the right.
