Hi Claude-Jean! Having been back in the UK for a week now I have a moment to email you to let you know how our trek went.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our time in the Rockies and keep reciting stories even now. Our enjoyment and memories are due in no small part to Stan and his team of Donna and Yvonne. We felt privileged to spend time in such a stunning and awesome part of the world, seeing parts that are really only possible on horseback.

The horses were absolute stars to whom we were al well matched including 8 year old Joe.

It was lovely to be part of a small group with just 8 of us including Stan and team. The ride in on Monday was tough with temperatures up to 30C. The day we went to the Lost Guide Lake high in the mountains we had to ride back to camp through 3 hours of torrential rain which saw us all absolutely soaked through. However the cameraderie when we got back helped us all recover immediately.

A memorable and unique holiday all round. Thank you all your help in making it happen.

With best wishes

Bob and family
