Rafter 6 Outdoor Adventures is a family
run business dedicated to the personal touch.
We conduct Chuckwagon Dinner Rides and Overnight Cowboy Camp-Outs, riding through
some of Central Arizona's most scenic back country. Hourly trail rides are also available.
Our Adventures take place on the beautiful Cross
U Ranch, 30 miles north of Prescott, Arizona.
The Cross U Ranch is an historic working cow ranch, operating in the age old Arizona
tradition. Elevations vary from 4500 to 5500 feet, creating daytime summer temperatures
from the low 80s to the mid 90s with cool, starry nights.
Rafter 6 is devoted to preserving the Old West and its
many traditions, and we share the cowboy culture in our camps, creating an atmosphere
reminiscent of the round-up wagon camps of days gone by. The camps are set around
our 100 year old Chuck Wagon and all meals are cooked in Dutch ovens and over Oak
coals. Range Teepees and Wall tents are your sleeping quarters and cots are provided.
Our Chuck Wagon Dinner Rides offer a small taste of the West, beginning with
a 2, 4, or 6 hour trail ride, and commencing with an authentic Chuckwagon cooked
Steak Dinner, complete with Cowboy Beans, Dutch Oven Buttermilk Biscuits and Dutch
Oven Cobbler. We finish the evening with a song or poem and send you back to town,
sore but satisfied!
The Overnight Cowboy Camp-Out can be arranged for 1 to 4 days, with an itinerary
that meets your specific desires. Your days can be spent either riding the back country,
looking for wildlife, (deer and elk are plentiful) or we can join the Cross U cowboys
and actually work cattle. The nights are spent around the Chuck Wagon and campfire
where western stories and songs are enjoyed.
Our hourly trail rides are guided rides that take place on private ranchland.
We recommend the 2 hour ride for viewing the Indian Ruins and quite often a resident
herd of antelope.
Rafter 6 furnishes very gentle horses and
Grand Canyon mules , that will take you through this mountainous country with ease.
We outfit you with comfortable saddles and quality tack to ensure your safety and
comfort.
Come West and join Rafter 6 at the Cross U Ranch, for the Cowboy Vacation
you'll never forget, and you will appreciate why at Rafter 6, it's the details
that make the difference.
