We will be staying at the Pitchfork Ranch near Miller, South Dakota. This lodge is every hunter's dream, featuring 4 bedrooms, 12 beds and 2 full baths. On this trip each couple will get their own bed, but may have to share a room with another couple. If you prefer your own sleeping space feel free to pack an air mattress and extra pillows and blankets. There are pool tables in the lodge so some friendly competition between the couples could be fun after a long day of hunting. Our lodge is located within 20 miles from where we will be spending our days hunting. On this trip your meals are included in the price. Upon arrival on Thursday evening we will be taking in a traditional South Dakota steak dinner at one of the local steakhouses before our guides take us to the ranch and show us around. Brunch/ breakfast will be provided for the following three days. If you are one who may need a little more to eat throughout the day we encourage you to pack snacks and any beverages you may want.

EXPECTATIONS + NO DRAMA POLICY

There are times that our trips do not go exactly as planned or advertised. Mother nature plays a large role in how we are able to spend time outdoors. We ask that you come into every single Her Wilderness trip with a positive attitude and “go with the flow” mindset for the duration of your trip. If that seems unreasonable, we kindly ask that you do not register for our events. The weather is unpredictable and can impact hiking, hunting, fishing, and our number #1 priority, your safety! For example, if your trip is geared towards hunting ducks, but right now the guide can only confidently offer a successful goose hunt, we will go with the guide's recommendation. If a situation like this will upset you then please do not register for a trip with us. We expect every woman to have a positive attitude no matter the circumstances. We have had plenty of trips get canceled, rescheduled or have plans changed with no issues simply because the group was understanding and made the best of the situation they were given. We pride ourselves in how fun our trips can be even in the most unfortunate of circumstances. If you are often considered “high maintenance” or tend to get stressed out then we kindly want to let you know that our trips are not a good fit for you. You may have to share a bed with a stranger, the weather may not allow us to participate in an activity, there may not be any showers available, there may only be 1 bathroom for 10 women, you may not harvest the animal you wanted to get, there could be someone on the trip that you just don’t vibe with. All of these scenarios are real and they happen. We will do our best to filter and prevent what we can before it becomes an issue. All of our trips and events are a drama and stress free zone! If you are the source of any drama you will be asked to leave with no refund given. We always want to ensure that our customers are comfortable and taken care of. We will always ask that you have a cool, calm and collected attitude. If you are unable to maintain a good attitude in a variety of circumstances we kindly ask that you refrain from registering for a trip. We appreciate each and everyone of our customers and want to ensure the best experience for all of our attendees!
