Covered Wagon Ranch, a dude ranch in Gallatin Gateway, Montana, lists wranglers for its 2027 season, set for about May 18 to October 8. Wranglers lead trail rides and guided hikes and bring along young horses. You need extensive horse and trail experience, backcountry navigation, horse trailer driving skills, your own Western tack and a clean driving record. A riding video, a recent photo and three professional references go in with the online application, and a drug test, background check and current First Aid and CPR are required before you start. Pay is a salary the ranch calls competitive, with room and board in mostly shared crew housing. The ranch says hiring begins in December and interviews are by phone only.
