Day Two
"Wild West Day"
|
Cowboy Breakfast Start your day like Butch and Sundance did, with a hearty cowboy breakfast and an early trailride through the golden aspen groves of the West Meadows. Roudy likes to hit the trail early, when the sun peeks over the mountains and lights up the meadow, when the birds just start to greet the day, and the breath of the beautiful horses still steams from their noses. Then sit back for a traditional cowboy breakfast, perhaps a glimpse of the wild elk herd, and a guaranteed tall tale of life on the range, courtesy of Roudy and his wranglers. |

Lunch: at leisure
Evening Event: Gorrono Ranch
| Historic and rustic, the two-story log Gorrono Ranch is perfect for a relaxed evening event. Add a western flair to your evening at Gorrono Ranch, with a country-western band, line dancing instructors and sepia toned 'Old Tyme' photos. It's hard not to dance to the sounds of our favorite band, the Anders Brothers, but those not tempted to boot-scoot can enjoy Colorado microbrews and fine cigars in Gorrono's Saloon. Local, costumed actors can reenact a shootout or even kidnap the CEO for an authentic Western finale! |
