I was first introduced to Tom Vinson back in the 1970s, actually when Tom Sr. was still running the outfit. Over the course of a dozen years I went on every trip that the Vinson's offered. Each one was the experience of a lifetime and each time I couldn't wait to sign up for the next one. I'm almost 80 now and live in southern Ontario and my riding days are a wonderful distant memory. However, I just wanted to chime in here and give a big thumbs up to Tom & Shawn and their very professional operation. When the world is going through these crazy times you could do a lot worse than spend a week or more enjoying the peace and tranquility of the Alberta Rockies. Happy trails you two...!
PS Question- below: "When did you go?" Answer "1970s & 1980s"

This was my second trip and I'm heading for my third in summer of 2020. The staff is so helpful and pleasant, camp is comfortable, food is nutritious and delicious! Best of all the HORSES are highly skilled, have great temperaments, and are very well cared for. We saw great scenery all day and relaxed in camp at night. Excellent in every way.

A true horseback adventure, with well train, excellently care for horses. Tom and Shawn are real western folk, with warm hospitality and knowledge of the mountain ranges. Cabins were spacious, fresh and very clean. A hot shower was welcomed after a couple days of riding. We rode with this outfit 35 years ago and wouldn’t even consider any other outfitter for our trip in August 2019, and plan to be back soon with our entire family.

Very friendly and professional outfitter and crew. Tasty meals and lots of it. Relaxed atmosphere.
Riding in the mountains always presents spectacular scenery. There is a horse for every rider's ability.

The Vinson's are amazing ! This was my first experience ever in the mountains since moving to Alberta (2017), and I am so glad I got to experience it with Tom on our day trips. The views are jaw dropping, and Tom is a great guide and a great brain to pick.
