2023 Trip Openings and Season Updates
Greeting from the Rocky Mountain Front
As the sandhill cranes return, the snow (slowly) melts, and the mules shed their winter coats, we welcome spring in the Rockies. We have both wintered well as have our families, and we hope you and your loved ones have too. Yve’s boys are both in school and busy growing, and Maggie is due in July, adding another little boy to the Dropstone family.
We are welcoming back a robust crew of seasoned staff this summer, so there will be many familiar faces on our trips. Check out the Meet our Guides page on our website to learn more about the guides, packers, and helpers working with us this year. We often say it takes a village to run this business, and these are just some of the folks who are part of the Dropstone community.
With summer just around the corner, we have a few openings we wanted to share with you in case you are still looking to hit the trail this summer.
