Hells Canyon Clinic
Advanced Beginner to Advanced North America's deepest river gorge, carved by the Snake River offers spectacular mountain views and breathtaking vistas dominated by grassland benches with intriguing ravines and towering cliffs. Wildlife is abundant during this "new growth" season with Rocky Mountain Elk and Mule Deer with youngsters in tow.

The wilderness will be our "Natural Training Classroom". We strive to keep all of our rides fun and relaxing while offering a progressive "clinic or lesson" experience. We begin our first day with Natural Horsemanship Training and Safety Trail and Wilderness Preparation. We begin each new day with a progressive lesson and then find opportunities to put what you've learned to practice as we cross streams and rivers, visit alpine lakes, traverse grassland hillsides and canyon ridges, maneuver over and around downed trees, navigate rock croppings, trot and lope on the grassland benches.
Evenings by the campfire will be filled with learning useful knots, history on the area, backcountry packing, Dutch oven success secrets, and discussions on the day's challenges and rewards, if you can stay awake.
Each ride includes:
- Well-appointed lodging in one of our private cabins or lodge rooms
- Western hospitality and delicious hearty meals both on and off the trail.
- Exceptional "Natural Horsemanship" instruction
- Experienced backcountry wranglers to provide a safe and fun wilderness vacation
- Comfy accommodations for your furry equine partners while at the lodge
- All tents, cots and meals (vegetarian and gluten free available) provided while in the back country.
