WHITEWATER RAFTING & EXPLORING

From late May through mid-August we offer our guests a terrific white water rafting experience. We drive you to a beautiful area near the head waters of the Arkansas River where there are rapids equal to any.

A bonded rafting company provides the rafts, boatmen and life jackets, etc. Children should be at least 8 year old. There is a modest extra charge. You've got to try it!

Our ranch is unique in its location. The remote high mountains that surround us offer not only spectacular scenery but, in addition, contain a wealth of unspoiled history.

The high mountains that surround us are filled with old mines and abandoned cabins. We're still finding them -- in places its hard to imagine humans surviving.

And with the mining came the old narrow gauge trains, often climbing well above timberline. The routes of the old stagecoaches and trains are now useable by us for vehicle trips. So during the summer we explore these remote, historic areas. The feeling of discovery is exciting. Our ranch is one of the few places you can really have a chance to see the unspoiled history of the Rockies.

In addition to visiting remote areas, you will also have a chance to visit well preserved old towns such as Georgetown and Fairplay. There you will see exceptional museums with relics from our area and be able to browse in the quaint shops.
