The experience

The ride starts on trails that cross Greycliff Creek and climb into views of the Absaroka-Beartooth and Crazy Mountains. You'll overlook the Yellowstone River and watch for local wildlife from the back of your horse. The guide helps you get comfortable with your mount before heading out, and can choose between a few different routes depending on whether you're a beginner or more experienced rider.

An expert guide leads the whole ride and stays with your group throughout. Saddles and saddle bags come with the experience, so you just need to show up ready to ride. The one-hour format means you get a real taste of the ranch without a full-day commitment.
