Yee Haw!!  If you have ever dreamed of riding horses in the Rocky Mountains, grab your hat and join us this summer for our tenth annual WQ Horse Adventure outside of Winter Park, Colorado.  This is the real deal, where we all get to be Cowgirls for a week, plus with plenty of pampering!! We'll ride each day in the heart of the Rocky Mountains; along streams, through high alpine forests and meadows full of wildflowers.  You'll also learn natural horsemanship to help you become a partner with your horse. We'll top off each day with yoga, spa treatments, a well deserved soak in the hot tub or pool and gourmet meals. It does not get much better than this!

Base Camp for this trip is the exclusive Devil's Thumb Ranch in Tabernash Colorado. We will be staying at a 5 star eco-friendly lodge with 5,000 acres of raw Colorado right out your door. We will ride the horses in the Arapahoe National Forest and the James Peak Wilderness area.  This lesser-known wilderness in the high country has unpopulated basins with pristine waterfalls, blankets of wildflowers and fabulous trout-filled streams. In addition to your WQ staff we will be accompanied on our adventure by experienced guides from Cabin Creek Stables to make each day a unique and inspiring adventure. 

If you have never ridden or are an experienced rider, come out to Colorado this summer and experience the inspiring grandeur of horseback riding in the Rocky Mountains.  This is one of the great adventures you've promised yourself.
