We're looking forward to seeing you at Mountain Sky.
This packing list will help our first-time guests - and our long-time friends - prepare for their visit with us. If we can help you with anything else, please do not hesitate to give us a call at 1-800-548-3392.
What to Bring to the Ranch:Layers - Mornings and evenings can be cool. Turtleneck and long sleeve shirts are recommended with a sweatshirt or light jacket. By midday during the summer, T-shirts and shorts may be preferred.
Blue Jeans - Bring plenty of jeans! They are the most comfortable for horseback riding and offer good protection for your legs as you ride through brush and trees.
Cowboy Boots - We require a hard-soled boot with a heel for riding. Tennis shoes or hiking boots are not allowed, as they are not safe for riding a horse.
Hiking Boots - A good pair of broken-in hiking boots are best for hiking our rugged mountain trails.
Fly Rod and Gear - The fishing is great! We offer loaner equipment, but if you have a favorite rod, bring it along.
Swimsuit - A swim in the pool or soak in the hot tub sure feels good after a long day in the saddle!
Sunglasses and Sunscreen - The high altitude of the ranch heightens the intensity of the sun.
Riding Gloves - Gloves are desirable on cooler days and to prevent sunburn on the tops of your hands. Gloves are available for purchase if you don't have them.
Rain-Gear - Rain showers in the mountains are not unusual. We recommend bringing a raincoat that you can tie on the back of your saddle.
Warm Coat or Sweater - Mountain weather is unpredictable. We have had snow on the 4th of July once in the last 10 years! If you are able to bring a couple of warm items, it is advisable.
Casual Comfort - The dressiest we get for dinner is a clean pair of jeans for the guys (or a pair of khakis if you want a change of pace!) and a denim skirt for the ladies. Bring whatever you feel most comfortable wearing.
