Elk Fork Outfitters

Seth and Josh were amazing! We booked a two hour trail ride, and 2 out of the 4 of us had never been on horses before. Seth and Josh were knowledgeable, patient, and super informative. They helped ease some nerves. We learned a ton about the horses, surrounding ecosystem, and just Wyoming in general. The trail ride was beautiful too. Hopefully one day we can come back and ride again!

Just returned from a five wilderness fly fishing trip with Elk Fork Outfitters and cannot recommend them highly enough. Seth, Alden, and their wrangler Aubyn were top notch, wonderful people and, most importantly for me, were patient and happy to help novice riders enjoy time on the mules and horses. The camp is in a secluded valley off of the Elk Fork drainage between Cody, Wyoming and Yellowstone Park. Pictures don't come close to describing the astounding scenery of Double Mountain, Wapiti Ridge and other landmarks. The food was abundant and excellent. How does Alden do that so many miles from civilization? The peace of mind from no cell service is hard to describe. Each day, Seth and Aubyn would lead five of us on horseback to different areas along the Elk Fork river and catch plenty of fish. The lunches contained so much food they were hard to finish. We would return to a remarkably picturesque camp, enjoy dinner and a camp fire. Then a desert would appear that shouldn't be possible in the mountains. Most of all, the people that run the operation and care for their guests make it hard to not have a life-changing experience in such a relatively short time. Go on this trip.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Backcountry Experience! Our summer pack trip was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Everything exceeded expectations—the expansive scenery of the Elk Fork (near the eastern edge of Yellowstone National Park), the fishing, the horses & mules, the meals, and most of all, Seth & Alden. They made us feel welcome and safe while also giving us the freedom to fish and explore the wilderness. Their knowledge of the land, wildlife, and history made the whole experience better. The mules and horses were extremely well cared for and perfectly matched to each rider. The campsite was perfect—peaceful, scenic, immaculately clean and comfortable. We all thought it was the best nights of sleep any of us had in a long time. The meals were hearty and delicious, which was especially impressive given how remote we were. Dinners always included an appetizer and dessert. What really stood out, though, was the atmosphere Seth & Alden created. They struck the perfect balance of professionalism, warmth, attentiveness, and adventure. It felt like we were riding with friends. This was one of those rare experiences that leaves you both refreshed and inspired. If you’re considering a back-country pack trip (including great fishing), don’t hesitate—this is the adventure of a lifetime. Highly recommended! We already have another trip booked with Seth & Alden.

Myself and my fiancé and our two friends went on a ~2 hour trail ride and it was terrific. Seth was a very knowledgeable guide and answered any and all of our questions. The guy who was helping him, Joshua, was very knowledgeable as well. Both of them were super cool dudes and I would recommend this outfitters to anyone. Also very reasonably priced!

Our family truly had an awesome experience on our Cook-Out Trail Ride the last weekend in May! It was a blessing to be immersed in the gorgeous Shoshone Nation Forest wilderness! The horses were awesome, Alden’s lunch was incredible, and the added wildlife sightings were a bonus! Seth, Alden and their crew were the best… great salt of the earth people !!! We had full confidence in them … skills, knowledge and safety! What an amazing memory we will take back with us... we are so grateful for our experience! We highly recommend Elk Fork Outfitters and will be back for sure!
