### Event Description:

The Colorado Psychedelic Practitioners Cohort (CPPC) is hosting a Peer-Led Pharmahuasca Retreat near Salida, CO, and we’d love to invite you to join us.
This 3-night gathering is designed for those ready to go deep in a grounded, peer-supported space — held by members of the CPPC who have been practicing with pharmahuasca for years. Join for a single night, or for all 3 nights.
As part of this event, we'll be celebrating CPPC Co-Founder Tony Shawcross' 50th Birthday.
This event will be more casual than our recent Peer-Led Pharmahuasca Retreats. Because there are multiple spaces, peer led groups will be welcome to use other substances (in-keeping with CO State Law), but the CPPC will facilitate oral and buccal pharmahuasca protocols that allow us to more precisely dose DMT & MAOIs, following the latest research.

The weekend includes two nights of ceremony, integration support, and time in the most idyllic natural spots in Colorado, including a final overnight journey at a private hot springs on Sunday, June 15th.

***

### What to Expect:

• Friday evening: Pharmahuasca ceremony at a private riverside lodge
• Saturday afternoon: Second ceremony using an alternative Pharmahusaca ROA
• Sunday: Optional Hot Springs Overnight
• Monday: Closing integration circle
• Shared meals (potluck-style), group integration, and peer support throughout

This is a peer-led event — not a commercial retreat or facilitator-led ceremony. Several participants will be alumni of our 5-month DMT Certification Program and there will be training for aspiring facilitators in addition to ceremonies. All activities are conducted in alignment with Colorado’s personal use laws.

### Retreat Cost:

• $500 for a single evening ceremony
• Retreat Cost: $950 for Friday-Sunday
• Small Additional Fee (<$100) for Hot Springs, depending on accommodations chosen.
• $500 discount for couples sharing a bed ($250 discount per person)
• $100 Additional BIPOC discount

This cost covers lodging, shared supplies (including MAOIs), and the peer-guided space.
Rooms are assigned first-come, first-served — late signups may include shared rooms or sleeper sofas.

For the 4 days leading up to the 2025 Psychedelic Science Conference in Denver, the Colorado Psychedelic Practitioners Cohort will be hosting a 3-day Pharmahuasca retreat and celebration of Co-Founder Tony Shawcross' 50th Birthday.
This event will be more casual than our recent Peer-Led Pharmahuasca Retreats. Because there are multiple spaces, peer led groups will be welcome to use other substances (in-keeping with CO State Law), but the CPPC will facilitate oral and buccal pharmahuasca protocols that allow us to more precisely dose DMT & MAOIs, following the latest research.
This 3-night gathering is designed for those who want to try modern formulations of legal ayahuasca in a safe, grounded, and intentionally held space.

In keeping with the model of the CPPC, this event is Peer-Led, not a commercial retreat or shaman-led ceremony — it’s a co-created experience for shared learning that will include several experienced participants from our recent 5-month DMT Certification Program. All activities will be conducted in alignment with Colorado’s personal use laws.
