Where is it?
 Pinos Altos was formed as an early mining town in Grant County and
still retains its historic feel and original architecture. To find it
and the October Fiesta, take New Mexico Highway 15 just 7 miles from
its intersection with Highway 180 in Silver City.
Each year, the residents and businesses of historic Pinos Altos host an
October Fiesta as a fund-raiser for the Pinos Altos Volunteer
Fire/Rescue Department and other community projects including
roadside/public area cleanup.
The 8th Annual Pinos Altos October Fiesta will be in October 2007, with most events held in the historic Main Street area.
Fiesta organizers promise family fun, live music, great food, and
plenty of vendors in celebration and support of our community spirit.
The Grant County Art Guild (housed in the Hearst Church), Fort Cobre,
the Museum and businesses will be open and participating. Vendors will
offer produce and all types of crafts, jewelry, antiques, collectibles
and homemade items.
A local group of old west gunfighters, lawmen and their ladies decked
out in 1800's garb can be seen at the various historic sites along Main
Street. Periodically thoughout the day, this infamous group known
locally as the "Gila Rangers" shoot up the town to the entertainment of
all.
Entertainment also includes an array of local singers and musicians who
will be performing throughout the day in front of the Pinos Altos Opera
House. Most of these singers and musicians routinely perform at the
Buckhorn Saloon.
