At Sundance, the Sunset Ride moves on horseback into mountain country as daylight softens and the landscape widens. Over a two-hour outing, riders pass through high-country scenery designed to reward those who come for quiet observation: wildlife—elk, deer and moose—are among the possible sightings, and the overall arc of the trip is built around the turning of day into night.
