Come join us
for our 7th winter season in Arizona. We want to
welcome you to our Southwest OutPost.
As of 2003, we now own 15 acres of Mesquite scrub
trees and
|
|
|
Yucca
in Cochise County in southeastern Arizona.
We are located 1-1/2 hours from Tucson,
near the local communities of Cochise,
Sunsites, and Pearce and not far from the
old wests outlaw town of Tombstone.
At 4500 ft. elevation we are out of the
extreme cactus of the Tucson area and up
into the more "horse friendly" country of
the grasslands. The valley is a rural
cattle ranching and farming area with
nearby Pistatchio & Pecan orchards.
The cooler mornings quickly warm up to
mild winter weather in the 60's and 70's.
Can't beat that for working horses!
We have miles of riding out the back gate
to State & Forest land leading right
up into the historical Dragoon Mountains
and the famous Apache
hideout,
Cochise
Stronghold.
These
strange and breathtaking rock formations
tower over 100 year old trails that wind
their way up
|
|
|
|
|
into
the mountains. After a day of riding, the
spectacularl view of the Stronghold at
sunset will hold our attention around the
campfire.

Our
rustic desert OutPost facility
include a new 10-stall barn &
tack room, paddocks, round pen,
outdoor arena, cow corrals, our
RV Barn with an Arizona Room
& kitchen gathering place
& BBQ patio/campfire area.
Just the basics, but everything
we need!
