    Wow, what an authentic, real life experience of journeying into the wilderness -and my first time…read moreriding a mule! Sally was a wonderful animal and as surefooted as they say! I felt so able to be present and witness the shifting light of the day and the rare and beautiful wildflowers (a favorite of mine) in the Gila Wilderness from the back of my steady steed. I slept so well after the long day rides and woke refreshed and ready to go again at dawn. As a person used to boring backpacking food that I have to carry myself, I was delighted to have real milk in my coffee and butter on my toast. What a treat! I enjoyed how the plans of the trip evolved and changed based on he knowledge the crew had of the area and the weather- this was a living, changing real life journey, not some dude ranch style packaged and predictable experience designed for your typical US traveler who wants a pre-determined concept of comfort and certainty that checks all the usual comfort based boxes. Those places exist and would probably be fun too, (I love spas!) but this was a real adventure! The horses were all so well cared for that some could even be released to wander around the camp area- this was astonishing to me and really spoke to the leader Jim's connection and care of his animals. I learned so much from Jim, who must have grown tired of all my questions about how he managed and got to know such a large heard of individual personalities. I will certainly be back when I am able to explore more of the area! What a treat!

    What a great experience! A friend and I just got back from a five day packing trip that exceeded my…read more(already pretty high) expectations. Stellar horses and mules (I loved that little miss Bombs Away). Friendly and knowledgeable guides Bridget., the cook and a guide as well, was super nice and full of interesting stories. She brought her fiddle so we had live music too! Great swimming holes and campfires every night. Can't recommend enough....

    The experience here was horrible. From the very first interaction which should have been a red…read moreflag. However we decided to still book with them. I guess that makes us at fault, which based on reading the owners responses to negative reviews she is going to blame us anyways We were going for my bachelorette trip, my Maid of honor called to confirm rates, times etc. so she could let my bridal party know the exact amount it would be per person. The lady on the phone mentioned tips, naturally my MOH advised we will be tipping but asked if it was mandatory and if so what the amount was. That's when she was extremely rude and had a horrible attitude and basically had no interest in helping us anymore. We chalked it up to everyone has a bad day. A few weeks later we call back to make the reservations, we thought it was odd that they told us if we cancel within 24 hours they we would be charged 50% and a 20% tip, yet they didn't ask for a card number to have on file. The day before the trip we noticed it was raining a ton, so I called the stables to confirm if they would still be riding or cancelling the ride. They advised "we ride rain or shine, we would only pull the ride if the lightening is too close and it becomes dangerous. However, we have rain jackets for everyone if we need them." Cool I was super excited, we went ahead and went to our cabin in Heber, the next day we drove 55 mins one way, we get to the stables. When we got there, there were multiple people outside and not a single person greeted us, there were no horses saddled up. Finally someone comes out to walk the dog and she asks if she can help us. She couldn't even be bothered to walk up to us or stop messing with her 50 foot dog leash got 5 mins to talk to their customers. When we mentioned we were there for the sunset ride, she replied "oh no we cancelled the ride because of the rain." When asked why we were not notified she said she called all 3 rides that were scheduled (which would have been the 3 of us) and left a voicemail. We mentioned not a single one of us got a call and she said "well it's irrelevant since we cancelled the ride, we can try to reschedule you for tomorrow but that would only work if it doesn't rain at all." We said no thanks and left. There was no apology, and absolutely no accountability. I would 10/10 NOT recommend going here, especially if it's for a very special time like YOUR bachelorette trip. Or if you have to travel to do it. I noticed they are a small wedding venue as well, all I can say is RUN, don't let your special day be ruined by these horrible business owners.

    This was our second time and it was just as wonderful the second time around. Last year we did the…read morehour ride. This year we did the hour and a half sunset ride which was a beautiful trail. The horses were great. Didn't need to do much, they knew the way. The guides were very friendly. Beautiful scenery.
