C Lazy U Ranch is at an altitude of 8,200 feet, which can contribute to dehydration. We provide all guests with reusable water bottles to fill with the fresh mountain spring water available throughout the ranch, but we suggest hydrating before coming to Colorado.
Bring sunscreen & sunglasses! There is approximately 25% less protection from the sun at this altitude so don’t forget these items—even in the winter!
The Mercantile:
If you forget to pack something, don’t worry! You can always head to the ranch store, The Mercantile, to pick up anything you may have missed. We have everything from toothpaste to the perfect boots for horseback riding.
We also have packing lists on our website to help you pack for the season. Check them out!
