Item Description

 

Lillard Fly Fishing Expeditions asks you the following questions...

Have you ever wanted to fish the secluded high alpine lakes and secret backcountry creeks of Rocky Mountain National Park?

Does carrying a heavy pack full of supplies sound too strenuous for you?

Well, we have the perfect solution, let the llamas carry the load!

Enjoy hiking deep into the secluded backcountry of Rocky Mountain National Park for three days carrying only your day pack. Catch plenty of colorful cutthroat trout in remote corners of the park, close each day with gourmet backcountry dinners, and don’t work too hard carrying any of the supplies! Fall is the perfect time to be in the park, the aspen trees will be turning amazing shades of yellow, red, and orange, and the trout will be trying to fatten up before winter.

Your Lillard Fly Fishing Expedition's guide will set up camp for you and your guest, prepare all meals, and provide fly fishing guidance, so you can focus on having the time of your life! We can even arrange for you to float fish the world famous Colorado River at the end of your trip.

You and your guest will meet your guide and Llamas at the trailhead in Rocky Mountain National Park on Friday, August 23rd. From there you will hike anywhere from 5-7 miles, mostly up hill, to a pristine alpine lake full of trout eager to take a fly. The next day will be spent learning the techniques and intricacies of fly fishing, lounging and taking in the mountain scenery, and of course catching lots of trout! On Sunday, August 25, we will spend a little time fishing in the morning and then will hike back to the trailhead where your trip can end, or you can arrange, for extra cost, to go float fishing on the upper stretches of the mighty Colorado River.

The trip for two anglers takes place from August 23 - 25 with an option to extend the trip an extra day to include float fishing.
