48th
Annual Woodchoppers Jamboree and Rodeo
The chips fly during Father's Day weekend in June every year in Encampment as
loggers come from all over the country to compete for the title of Rocky
Mountain Champion Lumberjack. Using power saws, axes and hand saws, the men and
women competitors cut down “trees,” chop logs and saw squared wood blocks in
half, racing the clock for the fastest time. Cowboys ride bulls and broncs, and
the melodrama encourages the audience to get involved. This unique Wyoming event
assures a good time to be had by all.
