Women, Fish, Wine

April 22nd, 2011 by 4ur admin

Imagine spending a week with your best girl friends doing what you most like to do – fish, hang out together, and drink wine.

We invite women to join us at our Colorado Fishing Lodge for the Women, Wine, & Waders Retreat.

That’s what it’s like at our Colorado Dude Ranch during the Women, Wine & Waders Retreat. In 2011, women anglers will take over the ranch the week of August 21-27. You could be there.

You’ll spread out over Goose Creek and spend a day at Lost Lakes. You’ll fish all day, maybe learning new techniques with one of our fishing guides, maybe perfecting old ones. Perhaps you’ll go horseback riding one afternoon, or relax into a massage.

In the evening, you’ll soak in the natural hot springs and cool off in the pool. You’ll indulge in long, sumptuous dinners and share bottles of wine. You’ll talk with old friends and make new friends. You’ll laugh. You’ll be happy and fulfilled.

Sounds ideal, doesn’t it?

It is.

Join us during the Women, Wine & Waders Retreat at our Colorado Dude Ranch, August 21 – 27, 2011. Come with your good friend, your sister, your mother or daughter. Fish in one of the most glorious places on earth. Celebrate life.

Fish Goose Creek.

A Favorite Colorado Wine: Infinite Monkey Theorem

April 26th, 2010 by 4ur admin

We have something to look forward to – staff orientation is one month away. And if that is only a month away, than the good days of summer are just past that. I began to reminiscence about fun from the summer before at the guest ranch. Rides with friends and family – a wonderful chance for generations to spend time together.

Of course there are all the lovely meals that we enjoy during a summer dude ranch vacation. Chef Wray Warner really spoils all of us! But what is a great dinner with friends and family without the option to have a delicious wine with the meal? That is where our friend Ben Parsons of the “Infinite Monkey Theorem” comes into the equation. He shared his delicious Colorado wines, and we were sold.

The Infinite Monkey Theorem is a “Urban Winery”, in Denver, encouraging you to judge the wine on it’s merits, and not a pastoral backdrop for sipping. I guess that’s why it tastes even better when you are drinking it in the Upper Rio Grande Valley, and the beauty of this valley!

Come enjoy a crisp Chardonnay, or a dark, concentrated Petit Verdot with us in the lodge, or on the porch watching the sunset. You will be enjoying the best of what the Colorado has to offer: Grapes from the Western Slope, the beauty of our Southern Colorado valley, and the clean, crisp waters of the Northern Rio Grande.
