COWBOY CAMP

Double Rafter Cattle Drives and clinician Chris Ellsworth have teamed up to bring you a brand new event:

COWBOY CAMP

This new venue will bring you the best of both worlds. Clinician Chris Ellsworth will spend each morning working with you teaching horsemanship, and communication with your horse. Chris has ridden with Tom Dorrance, Ray Hunt, Buck Brannaman and Curt Pate. Then on top of that Chris has 20 years of experience in the field chasing the wild cow. The afternoons will be spent applying what you have learned in the morning. The difference is that the afternoons will be spent in the field, trailing livestock, gathering livestock, sorting livestock and just plain trail riding. At 9000 feet we have the most scenic 70,000 acre outdoor arena in the world!! On Thursday of that week we will do an overnight pack trip to one of the most beautiful spots in the world. Come prepared to see beauty in a way that can't be described.

By the week's end you will understand what it takes to be a complete horseman. Each morning Chris will go back and work through one of the problems that arose the afternoon before. We will provide 3 meals a day and all the instruction and camaraderie that you can stand. A tent with a cot to sleep in and a sailor's shower are also included. As you sit around the campfire at night you will understand that this is no ordinary horsemanship clinic. Be prepared to make new friends for life, become a better horseman and have an experience that can't be equaled anywhere.

You can bring your own horse or ride one of ours. Due to the fact that we are very serious about the horsemanship part of this we are limiting this to 15 people. It is first come, first serve, so reserve your spot now. PRICE $1850.00 per person.
