Howdy all! Fall clean up is ramping up and the gals are busy getting the kitchen all shined up and ready for our incoming 2024-25 crew. ✨ We thought this would be a great time to do a little crew spotlight on one of our good friends and long time staff member Shanon! Shanon worked at Elkhorn a number of years ago and came back last year as our hospitality manager. She is an avid hiker and just completed a Grand Canyon rim to rim adventure! 💪Shanon is a mom and new grandmother (she prefers the nickname Pippie to Grandma 😉) and is accompanied on her adventures by her partner in crime Phoebe. 🐩
We can’t wait to start this season and introduce you to the rest of our crew who keep this place running shipshape!

We hope you all had a great start to your week! Here are a few pretty desert flowers spotted  over the last couple days.
