13 Moons Ranch is located just outside of the beautiful mountain town of Carbondale Colorado. The information here will help you plan your journey to Red Earth Herbal Gathering.

 

The address for the 13 Moons Ranch is 6334 Highway 133, Carbondale, CO, 81623, USA. 

Arriving by Car
Coming east from Denver, Carbondale is a scenic 3.5 hour drive (175 miles) on Interstate-70. Going west from Grand Junction, Carbondale is a 1.5-hour drive (90 miles). If you're driving an electric vehicle, you will find numerous EV charging stations installed around downtown Carbondale.

We encourage you to carpool to the event and enjoy the company of other beautiful Red Earth women! Whether you are looking for a ride or can offer one, our carpool board will help you find carpool mates.

Arriving by Bus
Coming from Denver you can ride a Greyhound or Bustang bus to Glenwood Springs and then connect to get to Carbondale on a Roaring Fork Valley Transportation Authority (RFTA) bus via the Carbondale Connector. From there catch an Uber or other taxi service to the gathering.

Arriving by Train
Amtrak’s California Zephyr travels the spectacular rail route from Chicago to San Francisco with daily stops in Glenwood Springs. The Glenwood Springs Train Depot is located in the heart of downtown Glenwood Springs. This station is also where the Greyhound bus stops but you will need to walk to get to RFTA buses.
