“A highlight of our trip”

We did the one-hour ride first thing in the morning and had such a great experience that we returned the next morning for a two-hour ride. The first day we had the the guide all to ourselves and our boys (9, 14, & 16) loved the faster pace. The second day we had two other people in our group so it was a little more leisurely, but we loved the creek crossings and the amazing views. All of the horses in our group were easy to handle. Our 9-year-old had no difficulties at all. It was a treat having the dog running and splashing alongside us on the two-hour trip. We would definitely go back again.

“Great ride, lots of fun”

Went on the Kodak Hill (2-hour) ride with the family. We arrived without a reservation, but as advertised, we didn't need one. Plenty of horses and wranglers available. We were ready to go in about 15 minutes. We had never gone on a trail ride before, but the wranglers chose great horses for us and gave clear instructions. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and we stopped several times along the trail as he pointed out local landmarks. We had some good views of the Tetons from the trail, and even got to see a bear in the woods (Thanks Duke!). We had a great time.

“Highlight of our vacation!”

Our ride and the view from Little Pulpit was beyond our expectations! Our guide, Greg, was so patient with one of my daughters who had never been on a horse. Everyone we dealt with was friendly and sincere. I couldn't have asked for more. If you're looking to really get out in the backcountry this is the place for you.

“Wonderful, beautiful, and exciting ride!”

My husband , daughter and I went on the 3 hour pulpit ride this morning. We have ridden with 2 other outfitters in Jackson and this one is by far the best! The ride is varied. You cross creeks, climb hills, ride through trees and gorgeous fields of wild flowers. Our guides were very mindful of safety, checking our gear frequently. I highly recommend these outfitters!

“Awesome and great fun for the whole family!”

There are 8 of us that make a trip to GTNP every year (us parents have been going 22 years). We have 3 adults and 5 kids (ranging in age from 10 - 18). We found this jewel of a place 3 years ago and have made a point not to miss this the last few years. We just returned from our most recent trip and I want to give the Hill family and their staff kudos. Always such an enjoyable experience.

“Had a great day in the saddle.”

The four of us, myself, wife, and two teenagers had a lot of fun on a two hour trail ride. Two hours was plenty for us novice riders. The wranglers and guide explained everything we needed to know before and during the ride. The horses did what they were suppose to do, just keep pace with the others in single file. Beautiful scenery!

“Wonderful experience”

We had a wonderful day in the Tetons with a fun guide. We went on a 3 hour ride the first day and enjoyed it so much that we went on another 3 hour ride up to Big Pulpit 2 days later, 9,000ft! Great views and our horses were very responsive, well taken care of and surefooted even though we were going up steep terrain at times. I like the fact that we didn't need reservations.

“Great riding experience; awesome views!”

We have done trail rides before but this was the best so far! We went on the little pulpit ride. We crossed the snake river numerous times, ran up hill trails, had awesome views and all around, just a wonderful time. Our teenagers loved it.
