The hectic holiday season is the peak of chaos and emotions for many of us. As you hurry around and struggle to juggle all the demands and expectations and feelings, remember to take a pause.

😌 Sometimes just 5 minutes in a quiet closet can do the trick.

😌 Sometimes an hour in your car online before you go in the house.

😊 And sometimes you may need to schedule a whole week in the wild to give your brain and body something to look forward to. For many of us wilderness isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity for the soul.

Imagine next summer in the Bob Marshall Wilderness: no screens, no rush, just the steady rhythm of hoofbeats, the roar of campfire laughter, and the humbling embrace of untouched nature. 🏕️

Slow down.
Connect with others.
Breathe.
Relax under a canopy of stars.

A Dropstone Outfitting trip isn’t just an adventure—it’s a reset button for your spirit. Take the time your life has been begging for and look after your future self. 🤍

Happy Thanksgiving from Dropstone. We are grateful for the big wild place we work and adventure, our families and friends, and our co-workers (both the two-leggeds and four-leggeds). But MOST of all, we are grateful for the wonderful people we get to share the trail with each summer. Wishing you a restful day and a belly full of good food.

So, um, last week was National Mule Day. Guess who forgot to post a single word about our hardest-working, four-legged legends of the backcountry? Yep, that’d be us. 🫤

And let’s just say… our mules are not amused. Turns out, they have feelings, too, and they are not above stopping for no reason on the trail to get the point across. 🤣

So here is our belated love letter to our beasties:

10 Reasons Why We’re Obsessed with Our Mules (and why they tolerate us despite our forgetfulness):

🐴 They haul literal TONS of gear, food, and snacks every summer so we don’t have to.
🐴 They’ve mastered the art of passive-aggression.
🐴 Their only “PTO” is when they’re napping on the trail—self-care goals, really.🐴 Each one has a bigger personality than half our staff…and we love them for it.
🐴 The ultimate team players. No complaints, just steady steps up miles of steep trails with our chaos-packed on their backs.
🐴 Expert navigators of the wilderness… and our hearts (awww).
🐴 Unfazed by Mother Nature’s drama—storms, bears, or our questionable packing skills. They’re the OGs of calm, cool, and collected.
🐴 They never, ever forget a trail… or a snubbed National Mule Day post. Oops.🐴 Their “I work better in silence” vibe really calls us out sometimes.
🐴 We absolutely couldn’t do it without them. Period.

Dearest Dropstone Mules, this post is for you. 🫶🏼We love you. Now, can we call it even?
