What To Pack
Sunshine, campfires, horseback rides , lake swims and more. We have ideas to help you be prepared.
Lots of variety so let’s make sure you’re all set for the best experience.
Long pants or jeans – Jeans are preferred as they usually do not ride up as much and offer more protection.
Boots - Cowboy boots or close-toed shoes without a thick sole.
Tennis shoe or hiking shoe – The ranch is located in the 2.4 million acre Frank Church Wilderness, which makes for miles of hiking trails for you to explore.
A hat – A baseball cap, cowboy hat, or other brimmed hat will help to shade your eyes from the sun on your many outdoor excursions. If you don’t want to bring a hat, the ranch gift shop has a selection of cool Diamond D baseball caps to purchase.
Swimsuit – Enjoy our refreshing pool and wonderful hot tub after a long day on the trails.
Water shoes – Gold panning requires some wading in the creek.
Warm weather clothes (shorts, t-shirts, etc) – The average summer temperatures at the ranch are usually in the mid 70’s, although it has been known to be warmer.
Sweatshirt and coat – It will cool down in the evenings and usually a sweatshirt or light coat is most comfortable.
Sunscreen
Bug Spray – In the early summer and early fall, the mosquitoes and gnats come out in the evenings so a little bug spray is a big help.
A Good Book – Take some time to kick back and read that book you have been meaning to get to or borrow one from the ranch library and read a great western while you are experiencing the West!
