Everything about the horseback riding trip exceeded our expectations. The outfitters have access to a pristine wilderness area, lush with lakes and wildflowers. The guide riveted us with his extensive knowledge of the land's resources -- geology, botany and wildlife -- and his eloquence. He worked well with both beginning and experienced riders, allowing both groups to trot and canter as appropriate. We traveled from Aspen, CO (about an hour), and it was absolutely worth the trip!
Pros: pristine location, highest-caliber guide, excellent stock
Cons: distance -- worth it!
