Drop Camp Pricing
The base rate for a drop camp is $500. The rate for stock is $25 per hour per animal. Example: If you want to be dropped off 4 hours from the trailhead, this requires 8 hours round trip for your guide and his stock (4hrs. riding you in + 4hrs. riding you out = 8 hours). If the trip requires 3 animals (your guides horse, the horse you are riding, and one pack mule) that would be $75 per hour ($25 X 3 animals) X 8 hours = $600. Add the $600 to the base rate of $500 and the total for your drop camp would be $1100.
