Wildlife Safety & Stewardship

Lost Creek Ranch is located within one of North America’s most pristine wildlife ecosystems. We share this spectacular landscape with grizzly bears, black bears, moose, elk, mountain lions, wolves, and countless other species that call the Greater Yellowstone region home.

Safe Observation Distances

Bears & Mountain Lions
Minimum 100 yards — approximately one football field in length.
Moose, Elk & Bison
Minimum 25 yards (75 feet).
All Other Wildlife
Minimum 25 yards. Use binoculars or camera zoom for closer observation. Wildlife behavior can change rapidly — even calm animals can become dangerous without warning.

Absolute Rules

Never approach or feed wildlife
Feeding creates dangerous dependency, alters natural behavior, and often results in animals being euthanized. It is also illegal and endangers both animals and humans.
No attractants outside cabins
No human food, trash, coolers, toiletries, or scented items may be left outside or on cabin porches, even briefly.

Encounter Protocols

Reporting

Always communicate bear sightings to ranch staff immediately, including location, time, species, and any concerning behavior. If a bear is identified on ranch property, staff will implement protocols to encourage the animal to leave the area safely.

During Close Encounters

Do not run
Running triggers chase instincts.
Back away slowly
Keep facing the animal as you retreat.
Appear large
Raise your arms above your head.
Use your voice
Speak in calm, firm tones.
Report immediately
Notify staff of any close encounter as soon as it is safe to do so.

Bear Spray

Available at the office
Bear spray is available for wilderness excursions. Effective range is 25–30 feet. Proper usage instruction is provided upon request.

Your cooperation helps ensure both humans and wildlife can safely coexist while preserving these magnificent animals and their habitat for future generations.

Cabin Amenities

Your cabin is thoughtfully outfitted with amenities designed to create a comfortable and convenient mountain retreat. Recent renovations have brought a refreshing touch to these historic cabins. We ask for your cooperation in maintaining these legacy buildings during your stay.

Ice ServiceAvailable at the Lodge and Spa. An ice bucket is provided in your cabin for easy transport.
Screen DoorsScreen doors provide natural ventilation and encourage cross-breezes. To minimize dust, pollen, and wildlife entry, please close screen doors when away from your cabin. Make sure to hold on tight!
Wi-Fi ConnectivityEach cabin features Starlink internet service. Guests may opt in or opt out of Wi-Fi access during their stay — full connectivity or complete digital detox, your choice.

Bathroom Updates

Horseback Riding

Lost Creek Ranch offers an inclusive riding program for guests ages 6 and up — all rides led by experienced wranglers through Grand Teton National Park and Bridger-Teton National Forest, some of America’s most spectacular wilderness.

Requirements

Minimum age6 years old for trail rides. Children under 6 may participate in corral lead-arounds or basic horse care.
Weight limit250 lbs maximum. Horses can safely carry up to 20% of their body weight — this limit protects both guests and horses.

Arrive early15 minutes before all rides. Allow extra time on Monday orientation if you need boot fitting or helmet sizing.
Before leaving your cabinApply sunblock and bug spray. Use your cabin restroom (barn bathroom available if needed).
Trail rulesAll rides proceed single file per park regulations — side-by-side riding is not permitted. Most rides are two hours, except orientation, sunrise, and picnic rides.

What to Wear

Required

PantsLong pants — jeans with minimal holes preferred. Protects against sun, insects, chafing, and brush.
FootwearClose-toed riding/western boots with a heel. Also, tall boot socks highly recommended.

Recommended

TopLong sleeves offer best protection. Short sleeves and tank tops are acceptable — high-altitude sun is intense and burns quickly.
HeadHat strongly recommended for sun. Helmets available for children under 12 and optional for all riders. Ball caps must be secured tightly. Cowboy hats require a stampede string (available in the Gift Shop).
LayersBring a jacket — mornings warm quickly but alpine weather moves fast. Rain jackets strongly encouraged. Ranch ponchos available to borrow. Early/late season: long underwear and gloves recommended.
AccessoriesSunglasses with retaining strap. No spurs on ranch horses. No headphones while riding.

What to Bring

WaterCritical at altitude — dehydration occurs rapidly. Lost Creek water bottle provided Sunday evening. Personal bottles welcome; saddle bags fit up to 32 oz.
SunscreenLotion-style preferred — no aerosol in saddle bags. Best applied before arriving at the corral.
Cell phonePermitted for emergencies and photos — store in saddle bag when not in use. No calls or texting during rides.

Horse Safety & Behavior

Do notRun, scream, or roughhouse around horses. Walk behind horses. Pet horses on the face (blind spot). Feed horses by hand — treats must go through wranglers using buckets.
DoPet horses on the neck or shoulders. Follow all wrangler instructions. Horses are sensitive flight animals — calm, quiet behavior keeps everyone safe.

Inherent risksHorses may trip, bite, kick, spook, bolt, or buck. Riders feeling uncomfortable may request pickup at any time. Wranglers may refuse participation if safety concerns exist. Failure to follow wrangler instructions results in suspension of riding privileges.
