The services of a professional fishing guide, round-trip transportation between your Boulder hotel or our office and the fishing location, terminal tackle and equipment (Including flies, rod, reel, and booties/waders), bottled water and snacks (lunch is also included during full-day trips), and education about the local and natural history (including a library of Rocky Mountain flora and fauna).

Gratuities for your guide (while it is up to your discretion, the recommended gratuity is 15-20%), Colorado fishing license ($16per day) or rod fee for private waters. We will secure private waters based on request, but for CO fishing license we will send a link to register online.

On 1/2 day trips we include healthy snacks like fig bars, granola bars, nuts, gummy fruit snacks and water.

On our full day trips we also include lunches containing a sandwich, chips, fruit and water.

On our multi-day trips we take pride in providing excellent meals in remote settings. Remember, we are far from the road and trailheads, so our foods are not right out of the refrigerator. We accommodate dietary restrictions and preferences.

Mornings will consist of cereals, bagels, burritos, etc. Lunches will include meat and non-meat sandwiches, hummus, veggies, etc. Dinners will include protein and carbohydrates to recover and refuel for the next day.

We will be in the Rocky Mountains in June, July, August, and September. Our days tend to be long. In June, snow may still be present on trails and campsites. Bugs (mosquitoes) will be present in July and early August, particularly in and around water sources. August brings fewer bugs and cooler evenings. September generally has the fewest bugs, although that can vary from year to year, with shorter days and cooler nights. The weather is usually warm during the day (60s and 70s F). The evenings will be in the 30s – 50s F, depending on the altitude and month. Afternoon thunderstorms are almost a daily occurrence. Storms are generally strong and brief, lasting less than 60 minutes. Lightning often accompanies storms, so we make sure we are below tree-line by 2 pm. Windy conditions can be common above tree-line. As in any big mountain chain, snow can fall at any time or month during the year, even summer. There may be some snow patches around the Continental Divide in July, but not enough to warrant an ice axe or crampons.

We supply all rods and tackle for the day as well as boots and waders if needed.

All of our programs are designed to meet you where you are at and to be attainable by all participants.
