Descriptions/Dates

Pack Trip Schedule 2003
As you can see from the schedule listed, we have six trips on line beginning in early July and ending in late August. Trips include a guide, cook, wrangler, meals and tents. Guests will be asked to arrive at the ranch the morning of departure by 8:00 a.m. to meet their crew and join us for breakfast.

** We realize not everyone is capable or has the time to do a longer six day trip and for that reason we have left dates open for shorter custom trips in the three to five day range .


Trip#1 The Great Wildlife Adventure
Start Date: June 22nd
Finish Date: June 27th
Maximum Capacity: 8
Price: $2,395.00 per adult
$1,795.00 (age 12-16)
Obviously, the primary emphasis on this trip is to find and watch wildlife. On this first trip of the summer the back country is still in a spring mode. The big ones, i.e. deer, elk, moose, goats, both black and grizzly bear have not yet moved onto summer range and the opportunity to view these and other animals is excellent. We'll be not only looking for wildlife but also the types of habitat conducive to each particular species.


Trip#2 Cowboys and Cutthroats
Start Date: July 20th
Finish Date: July 25th
Maximum Capacity: 8
Price: $2,395.00 per adult
$1,795.00 (age 12-16)
Please ask me to send you a copy of an article which appeared in the Sports/Venture Section of the New Orleans Times-Picayune. You'll read about one tremendous trip we did with three couples and a single man a few years back. The author mentions this area as being a "true angler's paradise." We ride and pack into the Middle Fork of the Flathead River and fish it, two lakes, and several feeder streams. We'll be fishing for cutthroat trout primarily, with brook trout available in some locations. The fishing will be fair to excellent, never bad! You will catch fish. Remember though, we're pretty horse oriented, so we'll be doing some traveling.


Trip#3 Crossing the Trilobite Range
Start Date: August 3rd
Finish Date: August 8th
Maximum Capacity: 8
Price: $2,395.00 per adult
$1,795.00 (age 12-16)
We've done this trip for years and it remains our most popular. As we always say, "this trip has it all". You'll ride up the Flathead River corridor and as you gain altitude in the very remote Dolly Varden Creek drainage you'll be in absolute awe as the magnificent alpine country opens itself up to you. There is no doubt that if one were wanting to travel through only one area of the Bob Marshall and had only six days you would be hard pressed to find more qualities of the "Bob" in one area than in the Trilobite Range. Needless to say, we rank this trip among the very best anywhere, anytime!


Trip#4 Off the Beaten Path Custom Trip
Start Date: August 24th
Finish Date: August 29th
Price: $2,395.00 per adult
$1,795.00 (age 12-16)
For those folks who want to see some of the back country of the Bob. You'll spend a good amount of time on narrow trails and into very remote basins and meadows that most folks simply don't see. As hunters we occasionally venture into some of this country in the fall. It's very important to me that I see and feel this kind of country every so often. Isolation and wilderness are the essence of every outfitter. You may be a wildlife enthusiast, a photographer, a city person, etc. it doesn't really matter. It's vital to all of us that we know country of this type is still there. Believe me it is.
