On the Big Horns you will see more of the West the way it was; the way it ought to be.

Our horses are well trained strong and mountain wise. One need not be an excellent rider to fully enjoy the trip. Days are of ten spent riding and exploring remote areas off the beaten path. You will enjoy discovering areas seldom visited, viewing summering wildlife, searching for wily trout or photographing breathtaking mountain landscapes.

Our trips usually comprise just your family or a few friends. The daily itinerary is tailored to your interests, whether it be riding, photography, hiking, looking for wildlife, exploring, or just relaxing. Our trips are excellent for even the youngsters in your family. We too have young children and can attest to their love of the wilderness.
