The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service on April 13, 2017. It is reproduced in full below.

Watrous, NM: Ceran St. Vrain’s lasting impact on the Southwest can still be found in the trail ruts, old centers of trade, and mills he helped build and that still stand against the surrounding landscape as a monument to his legacy. From fur trapping and trading, he progressed to positions of business, military and political prominence that made him one of the leading pioneers of the early west. He made a name that would become legend as a trapper, trader, entrepreneur, and a soldier during his time in New Mexico. Join Christine St. Vrain-Fischahs, and learn about the life of Ceran and discover the legacy he left behind.

This program will be held at the CCHP/Santa Fe Trail Interpretive Center at 116 Bridge Street in Las Vegas, New Mexico on Thursday, April 20, 2017 at 7:00 PM.
