Canyonlands Lodge Ride - Colorado Plateau
Utah
USA
On our inn-to-inn trail rides, we select daily destinations from several dozen available. Our lodging location changes mid-week from Torrey, UT to Boulder, UT as our ride meanders down the Waterpocket Fold towards Lake Powell. Our horseback ride destinations move us from the Capitol Reef National Park area into the Grand Staircase/Escalante Canyons National Monument. During warm weather or fall foliage, excursions to the lakes and alpine meadows of Fishlake or Dixie National Forest become part of our itinerary.
An elegant lodge will serve as your home for the daily forays deep into the wilderness. You’ll experience ancient petroglyphs, slickrock mountains, slot-canyons, rock arches, buttes and spires such as Cathedral Valley, The Mummy Cliffs and Circle Cliffs, Paradise, Hell’s Hole, The Velvet Ridge, The Golden Throne, Pleasant Creek Falls and Gorge, Deep Creek Gorge, Tantalus Canyon, and more.
Trails on all of our Utah horseback rides are mostly un-groomed and pioneered by wildlife, Indians, outlaws or herdsmen. Areas explored are selected for their scenic quality, pristine natural condition and remote location. As a general rule, the rides explore higher environs (to 11,500 ft.) during mid-summer and lower elevations (to 3,900 ft.) earlier or later in the season. Life zones visited may range from Alpine to upper-Sonoran depending on ride and time of year.

Note:
Due to COVID-19 Corona virus pandemic and certain travel restrictions we are applying some temporary policy changes to some of our tours.
For Canyonlands Lodge Ride - Colorado Plateau (IRUT01):
In the primary interest of protecting the health and safety of our guests and employees, and to abide by federal, state and local directives regarding social distancing and staying close to home, we are considering cancellations of upcoming trips approximately 30 days prior to departure.
If clients want to postpone after 2021 they will be subject to any price change.
INTERNATIONAL TRAVELERS
As a result of worldwide travel restrictions, we are working with our guests and affiliate operators to cancel or reschedule trips on a case by case basis. However, it’s important to note that our trips are run in collaboration with local guides, transportation services, hotels, restaurants, etc. These are small local businesses that support resident communities, and we’re proud to consider them part of our team. When you reserve a trip with us, we make non-refundable payments for fees and contract services on your behalf months in advance, which is why final payments (typically due 30-60 days prior to departure) are generally non-refundable. In many cases, it will be difficult or impossible for us to get those payments back. Bottom line, we’ll do the absolute best we can under the circumstances, but refunds may simply not be possible.
WE’RE WORKING THROUGH THIS
Running trips later this season, we learned and applied will continue to apply techniques to mitigate the roadblocks. We will continue with enhanced screening protocols; we may (at our discretion) decline service to a guest and/or remove a staff member from the schedule under the following circumstances:
• If a guest or guide has been in close contact with someone (within approximately 6 feet for any sustained period of time) of a person known to have COVID-19 within the 14 days prior to a scheduled trip
• If a guest or staff member develops flu-like symptoms (a fever, cough, and shortness of breath) during the 14 days prior to a scheduled trip
Of course, most of these measures require self-identification so we’ll be asking all guests and staff to sign a declaration of health form until further notice. We will continue to update our protocols as the situation evolves and as more information becomes available.
• Additionally, if a guide or guest develops flu-like symptoms during a trip, per CDC guidelines, we will socially distance the individual(s) from the rest of the group along with any community items, disinfect any suspected items or areas of contamination, encourage them to wear a surgical mask (to help prevent the spread of their illness), and consult local agencies about the possibility of an evacuation. If the individual requires caretaking, one designated guide will tend to the individual with appropriate personal protective equipment. That guide will also be socially distanced from the rest of the group for the remainder of the trip.
We hope you’ll rest assured that our standard procedures have long featured vigilant adherence to best practices for sanitation, disinfection of communal surfaces, and the availability of hand-washing stations. In addition to convenient locations of hand-wash stations at every camp, along with a heavy emphasis on their required use, we also bring a supply of hand sanitizer on every trip. Our certified food managers and handlers adhere to strict guidelines for food preparation and clean up. Vehicles are cleaned and sanitized between each use, and our rental gear (sleeping bags/pads, liners, pillows, and tents) is laundered between trips. Take confidence in knowing our operations teams are working extra hard to ensure we meet or exceed CDC guidelines on our trips as well as at our warehouse and office facilities.
As always, the safety of our guests and our staff is our primary concern. Please take the necessary precautions to protect yourself before your trip and when traveling, and if you meet any of the criteria for our enhanced screening for COVID-19, please contact us immediately.
All things considered, we remain optimistic about the 2021 season. We believe being out in the backcountry away from the crowds represents a welcome refuge from the hectic nature of our day-to-day lives, and our team of professional guides and staff look forward to helping you have the best experience of your life.

Suitability
While no previous riding experience is required, participants should be in good health and physical condition. And although the minimum age of eight years is required, the important point you should understand is that we do not want to put any participant in a situation which they are physically or emotionally unable to handle. An appreciation of the outdoors is the only prerequisite for joining our trip.
You'll ride at a pace that is comfortable for the group, sometimes splitting into two groups, one faster for the hearty rider, and one well-paced but leisurely for those who wish to take time relishing the beauty and wonder of the sights. All riders will then regroup and make a lunch stop together. Following the afternoon ride you will return to camp with plenty of time to clean up and relax before dinner.
Although the trips are designed for riders, it is not uncommon for participants to not ride one or more days.
Horses
Our remuda consists of ranch raised Quarter Horses with a few Thoroughbreds, Arabians and Mustangs. Most of the horses we're bred and raised and trained personally.
Saddle Time
Usually about 5-6 hours; more or less time if desired or circumstances require. On inn-to-inn trips, ride or rest as you please.
About Your Guides
Patricia Kearney or Gary George the owners, will lead each and every trip. Pat and Gary have been guiding backcountry travelers for over three decades. They are joined by a small group of seasoned guides who share a similar interest and enthusiasm for the Canyonlands.
Passport and Visa Requirements:

Seasons
Utah's portion of the Colorado Plateau region is a semi-arid tableland. It is generally dry with most precipitation falling as snow in the winter and occasional thunder storms during the summer. Higher elevations are cooler and receive more moisture than lower environs. Our trips explore the lower, slick rock and pinyon-juniper forested areas. With warm days and cool nights, it is best to layer your clothing to maintain comfort and you should always pack rain gear just in case.
The outfitter provides
- Gratuities at restaurants
- Transportation from headquarter to trailhead and return
- Saddle bags or day pack
- water bottles
Additional expenses
State of Utah sales tax, airfare, rental car, personal items and alcoholic beverages. You should note that trip prices have been discounted to reflect the added expense for car rental incurred in reaching Torrey. In the final analysis, the cost for this quality trip make it one of the best buys in the adventure travel market.

- riding gloves
- heeled riding boots
- walking shoes
