The Continental Divide Pack Trip is a 7 day roving camp, adventure travel trip, which focuses on a horseback trail ride along and over the famous Rocky Mountain Continental Divide. Your camera will get a workout as you travel to the "top of the world".

Day 1 - Pack UP and head into the Scapegoat Wilderness
We will pack up the mules and adjust your stirrups on your well seasoned mountain horse and ride into our Meadow Creek base camp, which is 14 miles in the heart of the Scapegoat Wilderness. We will break for lunch at Webb Lake Ranger Station, which is the halfway point for the day. Overlooking Webb Lake, the once "year round manned Ranger Station" is a reminder of years gone bye, as it is rarely used by Forest Service personnel in the 21st century.

Day 2 - Meadow Creek Layover Day - Relax
This is a layover day at Meadow Creek base camp where you can set your own agenda. You have the opportunity to fish for 2# native Westslope Cutthroat and 3# Rainbow Trout, explore, hike, ride off the mainline trails or simply relax in your beautiful wilderness setting. This should be a great day to spot a moose or maybe even a herd of elk. 

Day 3 - Saddle Up and Ride
Today we take a 4-hour horseback trail ride to our next camp at the Middle Fork of Landers Creek. Learn about the forces of wildfire as we travel through the 1988 Canyon Creek Fire area. The fire engulfed over 200,000 acres in only 36 hours. Now you can enjoy the solitude of the forest in its rebirth. Hungry 8 to 10 inch cutthroats await your arrival on the Middle Fork for a late afternoon outing.

Day 4 - To the Top
Today we Ride the Divide.  Keep your camera handy as we horseback ride atop the Rocky Mountain Continental Divide to our next campsite - "Valley of the Moon", elevation 8,000 feet. We are in big game country; watch for mountain goat, elk, and mule deer at home in the vast meadows of wild flowers. If we are lucky, maybe we can spot some endangered species (grizzly bear or grey wolf).

Day 5 - Fish and Explore
Sunrise on the Divide is a scene that will be etched in your memory forever! A short day ride, along the top of the Continental Divide will put us at Big Horn Lake. The Blackfoot Indian Tribe named the lake No-See-Um, as it is nestled beneath vertical cliffs on 3 sides, making it hard to find until you are actually standing next to it. Now is the time to try your skill (or luck) at fly fishing and/or photography. A campfire lunch is awaiting you just in case the fish aren't cooperating. It's just a great day to be in the mountains!.

Day 6 - Back to Reality
Pack up and hit the trail again back to civilization. Its a 5-hour horseback ride with the Rocky Mountain Continental Divide at your backside and the trailhead nearing with every step of your horses feet, its hard not to turn around and let the wilderness adventure never end. But first, one last lesson from Mother Nature as we ride through the Snow-Talon fire area of 2003. It is reemerging with every passing day as you may find yourself doing the same as you sit in the saddle this final day. The seat in your car may never feel comfortable again!
