When people treat you right in their business dealings, it’s only fair to give them the kudos that they deserve. We have a wide range of interests, including Labrador retrievers, upland bird hunting, horses, fly-fishing, publishing, the arts, nice wine, and many other subjects too diverse to mention.

www.proretrievertraining.com is a link where you can meet Lonny Taylor, a professional Labrador retriever trainer who does a great job of training Labs for waterfowl hunting and upland bird hunting. Lonny specializes in training Labs for AKC hunt tests.

www.clinetop.com is a link where you can find books on Labrador retrievers, instructional fly-fishing, self-defense and self-protection, and stories about the Colorado high country. “The Labrador Shooting Dog” by Mike Gould and “Shadowcasting” by John Dietsch and Gary Hubbell can be ordered through www.clinetop.com

Debbie and Bob McCormick do a great job of furnishing vacation homes and mountain getaways with classic rustic furniture, lodge home decor, and fishing and hunting themed furnishings and accessories. Their link is www.redstonecountrystore.com in Redstone, Colorado. They’re great friends of ours.

Some of our guests come to the Colorado high country and find they have difficulty breathing the thin mountain air. In some cases, it can turn into altitude sickness or mountain sickness. Contact Joe Hope’s link at www.alpineoxygen.net and he’ll bring over an oxygen concentrator to help you feel better. He’s located in Aspen, Vail, and Breckenridge.

Of course, if you want to go horseback riding in Colorado, check out the link www.outwestguides.com. OutWest Guides is located in Marble, and they offer guided fly-fishing, upland bird hunting for blue grouse and ptarmigan, elk and mule deer hunting, and Montana-style overnight pack trips.
