点评:The 5 day horseback riding was good, nice canyons to see. The saddles were crappy but that is expected from most outfitters, everyone had better saddles than the paying guests which is sad to say. Why I rated this 1 star is no hand wash station in the kitchen, I was told to go use the creek and I wasn’t given any soap. Horses tied next to the kitchen area full of sh*t and piss, kicking up dust like horses will do. Water was not filtered with a Katadyn gravity filter but they added bleach to kill the bacteria from the creek water (The amount of bleach is unknown) meals could have been good but the girl couldn’t cook, potatoes were hard, eggs out of a box, grease pouring off everything from the bacon, just a big disappointment in so many ways. The town closest to the trail head had no where to eat within 80 miles. The 6 room hotel, only one in town was ok, just a bed and bath. The trailhead from the hotel for the Gila wilderness was 50 miles away down a gravel/rocky road (a 2 hour drive) where we were meeting the outfitter near snow lake. None of this was conveyed to us a head of time. My wife and I felt we were more of an inconvenience than anything else. No map to see where we were riding to or where we were going the next day everything was like pulling teeth to get a answer. Usually you would stop after 2 hours of riding just to stretch your legs for a few minutes, nope no stopping even on the trails rides on the other days just seem like in a hurry to get you over with. Would I do it again, No we were planned to do the blue range wilderness, then Jim the outfitter changed it to Gila in July. We asked him one night at camp he said he never does blue after April. This was a screw me moment, we would of flown in to Albuquerque instead of Tucson, we already booked our flight and this would have saved a hour of driving. Communication skills just sucked once he got our check. Read the google reviews or yelp nobody would ever give this place 5 stars.
翻译:5天的骑马很棒,峡谷很漂亮。马鞍很蹩脚,但这是大多数旅行用品商所期望的,每个人都有比付费客人更好的马鞍,这很遗憾。为什么我给这家打一星的原因是厨房里没有洗手站,我被告知要去小溪,但没有给我任何肥皂。马被拴在厨房旁边,满是粪便和尿液,像马一样扬起灰尘。水没有用 Katadyn 重力过滤器过滤,但他们添加了漂白剂来杀死小溪水中的细菌(漂白剂的量未知)。饭菜本来可以很好,但女孩不会做饭,土豆很硬,鸡蛋是从盒子里的油脂从培根上的所有东西上倒下来,在很多方面都令人非常失望。距离步道起点最近的小镇 80 英里内没有吃饭的地方。这家酒店有 6 间客房,镇上只有一间还不错,只有一张床和一个浴室。从酒店前往吉拉荒野的小道起点位于 50 英里外,沿着一条碎石/岩石路行驶(2 小时车程),我们在那里与雪湖附近的旅行用品商会面。这些都没有提前传达给我们。我和我的妻子觉得我们给我们带来的不便比其他任何事情都多。没有地图可以看到我们要骑到哪里或第二天要去哪里,一切就像拔牙才能得到答案。通常你会在骑行 2 小时后停下来伸展一下双腿,不,即使在其他日子的小径上骑行也不会停下来,只是看起来很匆忙让你结束。我会再做一次吗?不,我们原计划去蓝色山脉荒野,然后装备商吉姆在七月份将其改为吉拉。一天晚上我们在营地问他,他说四月之后他就不再玩蓝色了。这是一个让我烦恼的时刻,我们会飞往阿尔伯克基而不是图森,我们已经预订了航班,这样可以节省一个小时的车程。一旦他收到我们的支票,沟通技巧就很糟糕。阅读谷歌评论或大喊没有人会给这个地方 5 颗星。
