The events they put on here for July 3rd and 4th are exceptional family fun. It's where I first tasted Indian Fry Bread. This time I was checking out the Rock and Gem Show and I really enjoyed it. I had my own painting repaired and reframed and the man who painted it was a presenter at the gem show. The entire fairgrounds is beautiful and well maintained. It's nestled right near the foothills in the Golden area. It's super easy to get by exiting on Indiana from 6th avenue.

Both rider and horse have come miles and miles since this time a year ago! Andrea has taught my daughter to be a confident, poised rider with quite hands. All the while, training our older disrespectful and indurate horse to be respectful, pleasant, safe, dutiful, and affectionate. As an equine health care professional I have also had the pleasure of working with Andrea and her own horses. She always puts the horse's best interest first and does not sacrifice health for passage. You won't find a more compassionate knowledgeable trainer with her patience, kindness and knowledge.

Andrea has a wonderful, non-intimidating and effective teaching style. She was able to identify my skill level and help me find the right horse for my skill and confidence level and for my riding goals. She worked with me to find my new horse from the very beginning until the day I brought him home. She helped me identify what kind of horse I needed and what my budget should be. She found horses through her network and asked owners questions to narrow down the horses we should see. She went with me to look at several horses and she eventually helped me make an offer and get a vet-check on the horse that became mine! She helped me learn about the process every step of the way! She even helped me find a barn near my house to board him. Andrea is a terrific - I can't say enough great things about Osmond Equestrian and the services they provide!

WOW what a time. My…read morefriend and I signed up with this company to take us on a 2 day extreme class IV/V Overnight rafting trip on the Arkansas river. We both have experience with this company from rafting the Upper Salt River in AZ. Unfortunately the water levels didn't cooperate but, the rafting company modified the itinerary to give us the best possible adventure possible. Day upper upper Browns Canyon which led to class I've and the use of duckies. Operation am not a fan but, half of our group loved them. We were then driven 1.5 hours away for our dinner and tent camping (3 miles from our put in). Ryan and Eric our guides cooked a great meal and catered to the group. We awakened to a mist and heavy fog, which we were served pancakes and sausages for a warm breakfast, and let's not forget hot coffee. We then departed at 8:30 for our trip down the Royal Gorge were we hit class in rapids, lots of class 3s, great geology, good company, lots of fun and a great experience. Ryan our lead guide and Eric did a great job for 2 days of providing us a great experience and memories. You have many choices but from a personal experience this is the best company to deal with. We are already planning next year's multi day trip.

No integrity and no remorse for ruining our trip. Fast forward, we found an amazing company that agreed to work us in the same day and, after speaking to several people in the area, it is well known that Wilderness Aware Rafting has less experienced guides and get stuck in the river holding up "traffic" most days. Literally no one locally has anything nice to say. In hindsight, I am glad we didn't go with them.

She somehow managed to keep my husband and me alive while making us laugh the entire trip. She gave great instructions, knew exactly when to hype us up, and somehow stayed calm even when we... spectacularly flipped the raft. Yes, we went completely over, and honestly?

She got us back together quickly and made sure we were safe while still making the whole experience unforgettable. If you're looking for adventure, laughs, and a guide who can turn an accidental swim into an epic story you'll tell for years, ask for Emma. We'd flip again... well, maybe once.
