Canyon Adventures was established in 1991 by Ed and Kathy Hake. Ed grew up in the Gallatin Canyon and knows this area like the back of his hand. Kathy has lived here for over 30 years and with their combined experience, our guides can show you all the beauty that the Custer Gallatin National Forest has to offer.
- Sarah Phillips joined us this winter as our office guru. She has stayed on with us to guide trail rides. Her expertise in horses is Polo. She has been playing Polo for the past 3 years and loves the sport. Sarah comes from upper New York State, though she has lived in Montana for the past 8 years and has that Montana mentality. She wears that smile everyday she is here and brings the laughter with it. Canyon Adventures has been blessed with having her as an employee!

are her passion and has 15 years of experience riding. She has already fallen in love the area and wants to move here
permanently, which is what happens to a lot of our employees. She likes to hike when she isn't riding and has a
cat that she has trained to walk on a leash and takes, Ennis, the cat, hiking with her!

Isabelle Dusseault, comes from Oregon. She has worked as a wrangler at other ranches and has fallen into her
position here with pure grace. She comes to us with the knowledge of working with Mustangs, which we have
quite a few of here at Canyon Adventures. She is actually on one of our Mustangs in her photo. A great new
asset for Canyon Adventures!

Isabelle Kramer, yep we have two Isabelle's working for us this summer! Her and her horse came all the
way from Georgia. She brings with her a bit of red headed spit and fire and some very southern personality. She has worked with horses since she was a little girl, so you will be seeing her on our "green broke" horses, getting them trained to be dude horses.
