2019, more after-hours craziness with Jill Warren, Ray Price, and the usual musical suspects. The crowd is going berserk at this point, practically drowning out the band.

This is now the history page for HermitFest which since moving to Bear Valley last year is now called HermitFest West. We moved it to B.V. for easier access, power, and running water.

There is great dispersed camping there just like in Hermit Valley. It is still free to the public but we do need donations to keep it going. At the end of this announcement is info as to where you can donate. With your help, we can keep it this way.

This year and beyond we will be promoting the festival from the Ebbetts Pass Scenic Byway Association page as well, which, with the help of local businesses and individuals, makes this wonderful event happen.

Donations to:
Ebbetts Pass Scenic Byway Association.
P.O. Box 2882, Arnold, CA 95223.
Please mention that the donation is for the festival. We are a 501-c3 non-profit.
You can also donate on line:

As you know, donations and memberships are the lifeblood of a small organization like ours. With your support, we will grow our ability to restore and enhance the experience of the Ebbetts Pass National Scenic Byway.
