Accommodations for Dixie Forest Ride



Accommodations
This is a wilderness ride where most nights are spent camping.

Description
On this ride we spend the first night in a hotel or Inn in Torrey (you will be notified the selection at the time of booking) and the 3 remaining nights are spent camping at one basecamp.

Accommodation Itinerary
Night 1: Hotel in Torrey
Nights 2-4: Camping

It is possible to ask to book a hotel night for after the tour (extra fee applies).

Camping
All our rides utilize a base camp arrangement with daily forays to different points of interest. This allows us to spend less time packing and unpacking, and more time riding and seeing the country. Basecamps are located in primitive, backcountry areas, which we seldom use more than once or twice each season. Camp elevations are typically situated in higher elevations in mid-summer and lower elevations in spring and fall seasons. 

Sensitive to the fragile environment, we employ low-impact camping techniques, small group sizes and well-maintained equipment. All camping equipment is provided (cots, mattresses, inflatable pads, freshly laundered sleeping bags, blankets, chairs and showers). Guests stay in tents (similar to wall tents, but with floors with adequate standing room) for single or double occupancy.
Our basecamps are supported by four-wheel drive vehicles, bringing what is needed for cooking, eating, a shower tent, luggage, as well as feed for the horses.


Room Occupancy
A single supplement fee applies for single travelers.



Meals
All meals from lunch on day 2 through lunch on day 5 are included. Dinner on the first and last day is not included.

Prepared at camp, a varied menu of fresh foods awaits, including beef from the owners Cattle Ranch. 
Some examples of meals served during this trip include: smoked salmon crepes, Street tacos, steak and potatoes, bbq pork sandwiches, pastas, corn on the cob, Dutch Oven cornbread and cobblers,...
Cooks prepare fresh and locally sourced foods and offer grass fed, hormone free beef and pork.

Dietary Restrictions
Our great camp cooks can accommodate to most diets with prior notice.

This trip can accommodate special dietary requests.
