Stories from the Ranch

Welcome to the Outlaw Cabin

We've already had the privilege of welcoming an incredible mix of guests—from a physicians' retreat hosted by the Mayo Clinic, to a group of exceptionally handsome groomsmen, to the wonderful (and newly married!) Sydney & Cody Beethe...also Joe's cousins!

The view is never the same, and the land is never the same. The mountains change with the weather, the season, the light, and the rain. And we, as people, get to change too. My guides spent the day getting to know guests from West Virginia, who somehow felt like family to all of us, even though we'd only just met. Maybe it's because I'm from there too, but anyone from West Virginia who finds their way to Wyoming already feels like someone I should know.

Adventures

There’s a good kind of energy that comes with this work. Getting to know the guests. Exploring the trails again to see what winter left behind — which paths are passable, which are still buried under snow. Preparing to step into the unknowns each day brings. It’s not often that I get to start the season with a full-day ride. Usually, I’m the one holding down the office. But this year I wanted to show our newest guide, Joy, the full-day loopty loops around Warm Springs, so I popped some ibuprofen and stepped in to guide a seven-hour tour (back/butt/thighs are really thanking me for that now..)
