Camping in the high
country of the Rockies!

Information

The area and terrain
The fly fishing trips we offer are pack in on horse back into the Rocky Mountain Wilderness. Everything you take must be packed on our mules for transportation. Base camp is usually a 12 to 15 mile ride. There will be shorter rides to reach fishing areas throughout your stay. The elevation of these areas are often 12,000 feet or more. We limit the number of people to 2 per trip.

When can you go?
The window of time that we can access these high mountain areas is small. So, a trip must be planned for late July to mid-August. There is always a possibility of thunder storms or even snow flurries in this remote high area.

License fees
A resident fishing license is $20.25 per year. For residents 64 years and older the cost is $10.25. Non-resident fishing license is $40.25 per year. A five day license is $18.25, a one day license is $5.25. Please note that the $.25 fee on each license goes to the Colorado Search and Rescue fund.

What we furnish
We want your trip to be a success as well as an experience you will remember forever. We offer gentle and well trained horses with all needed tack and feed. We also provide the pack animals to transport your personal gear.

Sleeping quarter will be tents and we supply delicious home cooked meals during your stay. Please be aware, that these trips are into remote mountain areas and all camps are primitive. We provide all the comforts possible for camping, however you will not have the amenities of a motel or lodge.

The ultimate in relaxation is sitting around the camp fire after an exhilarating day of fly fishing in the Rocky Mountains of South Western Colorado! The majestic beauty of this high mountain area will bring you peace and tranquility. It truly is breath taking and a 'once in a life time' experience.

We hope you will join us soon!
