Guided Pack Trips
For folks with a hearty sense of adventure, there is no finer vacation than a classic wilderness pack trip in the rugged Wind River Mountains. Our Guided Pack Trip allows you to enjoy riding, hiking, fly fishing or just relaxing while camping in the heart of the mountains. Our guides prepare wonderful meals, tend camp, wrangle horses and guide you on rides and/or hikes from basecamp each day.
As outdoor educators, we share our knowledge of the local ecosystem, horsemanship, backcountry camping, navigation, edible plants and more. We furnish all camp equipment and food. You only need to bring your sleeping bag/pad, personal clothing and optional fishing gear. This is our deluxe trip, let us do the work.
There are a couple ways to structure this trip; either camping with horses and going for daily rides, or using horses to ride in/out of camp, then camping without horses and going on daily hikes. Each style of trip has its benefits. If you’d like to camp next to a lake, going on shorter day hikes and spending more time fishing (or painting, writing, etc.) each day, then camping without horses is the way to go. If you’d like to camp with horses along a river and spend more time in the saddle, riding anywhere from 4-7 hours roundtrip to explore surrounding lakes, then camping with horses may be the better option for you. Both options require strong physical fitness as you will be exploring at high elevation in rugged terrain.
Individuals or small groups can also sign onto a Specialty Trip. Please read the Terms & Policies and visit the FAQ page. Please see available dates for 2026. Availability is limited.

*If you’d like to reserve a night at the ranch before the start of your pack trip, the cost is an additional $125/person for cabin(s) + dinner + breakfast. We strongly suggest this as it is a great way to get settled in, plan with your guides and enjoy a night of ranch life. You can also choose to extend the trip a bit by staying a night at the ranch on the tail end of the trip for the same cost.
