Activities here and near Dome Mountain Ranch
Trail
Rides Horses often come to mind when one thinks of a Montana
style vacation. Here at Dome Mountain, guests are offered old cowboy style
trail rides through some of the most spectacular scenery around. They may
ride along the Yellowstone River, through mountain passes and across open
meadows. One of our trail guides will offer interpretation and "horse sense".
These rides are available on an hourly rate or a full days package which
includes a picnic lunch. Trail rides are an excellent way to spend the
day. Horses will allow guests to gain a much better view of wildlife as
well as develop an appreciation for the real west. Our trail guides are
friendly and knowledgeable. Whether you are a beginner, small child over
8 years old, or old cowboy yourself, we have a horse for you. Trail
Rides operate through most of the year with the exception of the hunting
season in late September through February.
Backcountry Lake Fishing We offer a special trip on horseback to
fish for cutthroat trout at Thompson Lake in the Beartooth Mountains. Fly fishers
will especially appreciate the opportunity to cast after native cutthroat trout
in this natural alpine lake
Hiking For those who like to hike, the 5000+ private acres and
over 1 million acres of national forest lands offer many great day trips through
beautiful scenery to spectacular vistas. Our staff can give you ideas on where
to go and what to see. A variety of terrains are available for experienced hikers
or beginning families.
Whitewater Rafting The Yellowstone River provides plenty of action
and great scenery for those wanting to try this exciting water sport.
Shooting Those interested in basic gun safety and riflery can have
an opportunity to join a basic course here on the Ranch. A shooting range has
been set up for guests to enjoy some friendly target competition or try out their
favorite shotgun on some sporting clays. Guests will be escorted to the range
and aided by a Dome Mountain instructor.
