DAY 2
HELL ROARING CREEK RIDE
Start your adventure with a breathtaking descent down a series of switchbacks, dropping 600 feet in just a mile, all the way to the suspension bridge over the Yellowstone River. Ride across the bridge with the roaring Yellowstone River 220 feet below your horse’s hooves. The trail then leads you through rolling sagebrush-covered terrain, stands of Douglas fir, and ancient rock outcrops—nature’s time capsule. If you’re lucky, you might spot a pronghorn antelope, elk, mule deer, moose, or bison crossing your path in the early morning light. At the confluence of Hellroaring Creek and the Yellowstone River, cold, clear waters tumble into the deep, surging current. A sandy beach hugs the shoreline while the sheer cliffs of the Black Canyon rise dramatically around you. Look up—you’ll likely spot osprey soaring overhead, scanning the water for trout. The trail continues through rocky forests to Yellowstone’s northern boundary, eventually leading into the Gallatin National Forest.
DAY 3
SLOUGH CREEK MEADOWS RIDE
As we ride through the three expansive meadows of Slough Creek, you’ll experience Yellowstone’s beauty at its finest. Here, the land stretches wide and open, with the creek meandering through lush grasslands where bison graze in the distance and eagles soar overhead. The trail follows the winding creek, leading us to the historic Elk Tongue Ranger Cabin, a landmark rich with the stories of the park’s early days. We’ll stop for a well-earned lunch along the large oxbow bends of Slough Creek, where the gentle sounds of flowing water and rustling grass create the perfect backdrop to soak in the moment. The ride home is just as awe-inspiring, with the golden afternoon light casting a magical glow over the landscape. Arriving back at the ranch, you’ll be greeted with another delicious homemade meal, the perfect way to end a day spent exploring one of Yellowstone’s most spectacular hidden gems.
