We are opening for the Summer 2025 season on May 16. Come join us as the now melts and the mountains take on their green hues. There is no better opportunity to view wildlife like deer, elk and moose.
Halfmoon Packing & Outfitting is Colorado’s leading provider of Stagecoach and Horseback rides along with Camping, Hunting and Fishing trips. Located outside of Leadville near the resorts of Vail, Beaver Creek, Keystone and Breckenridge we offer the communities of Avon, Frisco, Silverthorne and Dillon the absolute best horseback rides.
The views are unmatched as all of our rides explore green pastures, aspen groves and pine forests with amazing views of Colorado’s highest peaks, Mount Elbert and Mount Massive. Mount Elbert is the tallest in Colorado at 14,440 feet and Mt Massive is the largest on the Continent with 5 separate peaks and the most acreage over 14,000 feet on the continent!
Our hunting and fishing camps are located in both the White River National Forest and the San Isabel National Forest. The majority of our camps are located in one of three different wilderness areas, Mount Massive Wilderness, Holy Cross Wilderness or Buffalo Peaks Wilderness.
