• How it all started: when 11 year old Rex Walker visited Colorado for the first time and knew he'd come back to build his dream ranch
• When it all started: It would be over a decade until Rex fulfilled his childhood dream, but in 1958, along with his brother-in-law Pat, they bought 16 horses and the rest is history.
• What you will find at Sombrero: After 50 years in the business, the Walker family has fine tuned their experiences, accommodating riders of all levels with trail ride around pristine lakes and majestic mountains that last from one to eight hours.
