we will show
you to your accommodations and invite you to roam about the barns, corrals
and get a feel for the general operations of the Ranch. After sumptuous
dinner, we will discuss the exciting agenda for the week and all the special
attractions and activities awaiting you during your stay.
Tuesday to Friday -We
do assist and require all riders be comfortable with tack and mount, that
they are capable of mounting and dismounting,
handling a trot and canter
safely, and are at ease in open space riding before leaving the ranch.
Afternoon rides may take us to the 8800’ foot
elevation the Willow Lake Rim overlook, (a 7 mile long Glacial formed huge
Mountain Lake) encircling the east and south sides of the ranch.
Wednesday morning will high light an awesome "Sunrise Breakfast Ride"
for a hearty meal with hotcakes, bacon, eggs and "Cowboy Coffee" in a
secluded Aspen grove or sunlit mountain top. All day rides will offer trips
deep into the Bridger Wilderness Area, enjoy 360 degree vistas of 10-14,000
foot high granite peaks which skyline as many as five of Wyoming’s mountain
ranges. We offer basic horsemanship and riding clinics, supervised fast
rides, horseback riding on your own (with approval) and weekly ranch cattle
working chores. Thursday - today only, we offer an Optional and
Exceptional all day mountain top ride to famous White Rock Mtn. (11,220’
elevation) - 3500’ above the Green River Lakes. Ocean bed sea shell fossils
and Indian arrowheads dot the outcroppings which cuddle wildflowers and make
lofty haven for Bighorn sheep. This above timberline trip is exclaimed by
every participating guest as "
"
. It requires hauling our horses, a minimum of 5 guests and costs $95
additional.
Late afternoons are reserved for a little rest and
relaxation, a short hike, a game of horseshoes or some roping practice. Top
this off with a generous slab of juicy succulent prime rib or charcoal
braised California seasoned Beef Tri-Tips
roast, complimented with a beautiful salad bar, scrumptious deserts and
homemade breads and pastries.
As
evening approaches, we will gather up the horses for an early evening ride
to our beautiful private sandy beaches on Willow
Lake. Here we can savor the magnificent Wyoming sunset while having a
romantic picnic over the orange hue of campfire ambers, toast marshmallows
and share good stories and friendships made in the tranquility of Wyoming’s
wide open spaces. The grand finale’ is our returning to the ranch by an
enchanting dusk or starlight draped horseback ride underneath Wyoming’s
crystal clear and star-studded skies
.
Hello Friends at the Box "R";
Our trip was exactly what we needed. Lots of freedom to ride and enjoy the
awesome country. I was so impressed with the sunrise breakfast cookout on
the Willow Lake Rim, looking out over an area as big as New Jersey. The
"Optional Scenic Ride" to White Rock Mountain was the most beautiful place
we have ever been on horseback. The Beach picnic and the opportunity to ride
back to the ranch in the dark was an experience of a lifetime.
Thanks to
everyone!
