Nestled in the largest national park in the United States, which abandoned mining town hosted a potlatch in honor of John Denver?

purrrr

McCarthy, Alaska has an annual potluck in his honour. I love John Denver:) http://anchorageable.blogspot.com/ "Anyhow--that ladder. It's known as the "John Denver" stairs, apparently, because, according to our guide, in one of his songs he mentions the Kennecott mines and McCarthy and in an "Alaskan Special" video, John Devner performed while sitting on these steps. For that reason, the McCarthy-Kennecott area now has an annual "John Denver Tribute Festival" where they gather to play John Denver songs and have a potluck and all that." Sep 26 09, 1:17 PM

McCarthy is close enough, though it's actually Kennecott, four and a half miles further from civilization. Here's a poster for the event, optimistically called "annual," though so far there have only been two. http://www.wrangells.org/downloads/JDII%20poster.pdf This is the locale: http://www.agnewbeck.com/pdf/copperbasin/McCarthy/Kennecott_Rec_Hall_Brochure.pdf Sep 26 09, 5:55 PM
