I did not know about this - this is pretty cool. Read on:
The Powder Ridge Rock Festival was scheduled to be held July 31, August 1 and August 2, 1970 at Powder Ridge Ski Area in Middlefield, Connecticut.
A legal injunction forced the event to be canceled, keeping the musicians away; but a crowd of 30,000 attendees[1] arrived anyway, to find no food, no entertainment, no adequate plumbing, and at least seventy drug dealers. William Manchester wrote: "Powder Ridge was an accident waiting to happen, and it happened."[2] Volunteer doctor William Abruzzi declared a drug "crisis" on 1 August and said "Woodstock was a pale pot scene. This is a heavy hallucinogens scene."[3]
pretty sad, or funny, depending on your point of view. So I guess those that went found that there was not much to do except maybe get naked. Oh well, lets just have some sex then and go home....
The second link posted above has quite a few naked pics. They are not copyrighted but a notice appears on the website not to distribute them. They have historical significance and so they should not be reposted.
