poles! Camp at gorgeous Hawkeye Camp before reloading and firing your own shotgun shells at Harlan’s picturesque
shooting range. Work with our Conservation Department on a new trail before camping at Aspen Springs. Then hike

mountains at Crooked Creek. You will then head to Beaubien to test your roping skills, eat a chuck wagon dinner, enjoy a
cowboy campfire, and ride horses down beautiful Bonito Canyon. Side hike to Fish Camp to tie flies and fish the same
waters Mr. Phillips loved so much. Check out the B24 bomber wreckage on top of Trail Peak and continue on to Crater Lake,
where the Continental Tie and Lumber Company will greet you. You will climb spar poles, cut railroad ties, and enjoy the
