OTHER INFORMATION

What To Bring: When you pack your suitcase for your ranch vacation, you don't need to take extra pains packing your fancy duds because you won't need them. We're informal and want you to dress comfortably and relax. Long-sleeved shirts (protection from sun), jeans, cowboy boots and if possible cowboy hats. (Baseball caps do not protect your neck). A good plan is to bring "layers" for riding. If you don't have boots, a smooth soled shoe is best. Hiking boots/shoes with heavy lug soles are not safe in stirrups. Days are usually warm enough for shorts, swimsuits, etc. during your relaxing time. At night you'll want a warm jacket and warm Sleepwear. The gals may want a skirt or dress for dancing, but it isn't necessary. The important thing is comfort, so be sure to bring comfortable shoes that will give your feet proper support - we don't have sidewalks and paved streets to mark the landscape. You might also bring a flashlight. If there's no moon, it's quite dark out at night. We generate our own electricity from our stream - AC for the cabins and for the Lodge.

Seasons - Temperature: Each month has it's charm. Spring/Fall seasons are generally beautiful. Temperatures are usually in the 70s during the day and 40s at night Spring brings fresh wildflower and Fall finds our aspen trees turning to gold. Summer temperatures are usually in the low to mid 80s during the day and in the 50s at night. Wildflowers continue to show during the whole summer. Elk, deer, ground squirrels, porcupine, chipmunks, marmots and many varieties of birds can be seen throughout the spring, summer and fall.

Who Comes To Our Ranch? - At What Age May Children Ride? Family members of all ages - singles, single parents, parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren - will enjoy our ranch vacation. Usually children age 6 who can control their own horse may ride on most regular trails with their parents. Children age 3 through 5 may participate in a special program. Adults and young people alike often make lasting friendships and return again with their special group.
