Traveling
through the wilderness by horseback riding
is regaining popularity as one of America's
favorite family vacations. This is a
great way to re-connect with family and
friends, away from the crowds and the
cell phones, the hustle and bustle of life,
the everyday stress that so many of us deal
with. Here at Lake Upsata, we explore
the Bob Marshall Wilderness from horseback,
just as it's been done for centuries.
We plan on
taking some great fly-fishing trips this
summer, offering a combination of remote
high-wilderness lakes and wonderful river
and stream fishing. We'll move camp
three times during the week with a one day
layover at each place to maximize our
fishing opportunities. These two, week
long fisherman's dream trips will leave late
July and early August, so get ahold of us to
book your trip.
Make your next holiday a horse holiday! |

Drop Floats:
Lake Upsata
Outfitters is one of a select number of outfitting
businesses in the Bob Marshall Complex permitted to
take private clients to the headwaters of the South
Fork of the Flathead River for private float trips.
We will not guide you down the river, but we will
get you to the headwaters. Floating
the river is best from early July to early August,
and, depending on the snow pack from the previous
winter, occasionally in late June. The ride
from either Monture (28 miles) or Lodgepole (23
miles) takes all day. Plan on getting to
the river late in the afternoon or evening and
starting your float the next day.
2009 Cost- per person @
$725.00.
This includes your
packing crew, one pack animal and one riding horse
per person. Additional
pack animals are $300.00 per animal.
For those that
choose to hike in, we provide custom packing
services to fit your needs. This is a "one
cost" approach to get all your gear to the river.
This includes your packing crew and 6 pack animals.
If you don't require 6 animals for all your gear,
deduct $100 for each unused animal. Again, no
riding cost included here. You must have
someone from your party at an agreed upon location
when the pack string arrives. We cannot leave
your gear unattended.
Custom string cost is
$1000 per day, including return days.
Drop Floats
are sold out for 2009. Please contact us for
2010 reservations.
