Depending on weather & other factors,
guests spend a day or two with the Cottonwood cowboys riding
the spectacular range and just enjoying life at the ranch.
The other 3 or 4 exhilarating days are spent on the horse
drive. Out on
the Drive, delicious western meals are served up
from our chuck wagon. You'll enjoy evenings around the
campfire and count the stars at night as you drift off to
sleep in your comfortable bedroll, cot and optional tent.
The last evening is spent back at Cottonwood Ranch where
you'll enjoy a final, celebratory night. It's truly a western adventure
that you'll never forget! |
