Rhino Ridge Outfitters, Inc. is the creation of Adam Eyres and Ted Brown. As lifelong outdoor enthusiasts, they have turned their hobbies into dual careers. When not organizing and guiding tours for Rhino Ridge Outfitters, Inc., Adam is busy as an animal care specialist at Fossil Rim Wildlife Center near Glen Rose, Texas. After competing for several years in NORBA sponsored mountain bike races, Adam created a successful weekend mountain bike program at Fossil Rim in 1994 and continues to be its primary tour guide. It was through mountain biking that Adam and Ted met. Ted put his master's degree in fitness management to work as a self-employed personal fitness trainer and speaker in Dallas, Texas. Discovering their mutual love of outdoor sports and nature, they decided to team up to create Rhino Ridge Outfitters, Inc. in 1997.

In 2005 Ted chose to pursue his personal training schedule more aggressively and Adam took over the company as the sole shareholder. Ted continues to be involved in some tours and as a part time guide.

In addition to his years of experience on bikes and in the water, Adam recognizes the importance of safety. Adam's an EMT and trained in sea kayaking rescue techniques. He also participates in all the kayak training opportunities he can throughout the year. He is also trained in sea kayaking rescue techniques. Ted is a water safety instructor trainer and lifeguard training instructor trainer. He has CPR training and is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist who has attained the difficult goal of Eagle Scout. Both are P.A.D.I. certified S.C.U.B.A. divers, and American Canoe Association certified instructors.

Kayaks—We provide all kayaking equipment, including the kayak, paddle, spray skirt, and bilge pump. If you prefer to bring your own kayak, please let us know at the time you make your reservation. We will transport private kayaks from Glen Rose to the destination.

Bicycles—Due to the substantial differences in how bikes perform, we request that you bring your own bike. We want you to have the maximum level of comfort and confidence during your rides. We also require that you provide your own helmet.

We have carefully chosen accommodations that offer hearty and appetizing breakfasts--some even provide all our meals. However, most of our itineraries allow us to sample the lunch and dinner fare in the best of local eateries. When out on the water for the entire day, our guides and support team prepare some impressive alfresco lunches. If you have special dietary needs, please be sure to indicate them on your registration form. We are especially proud of the comfortable, quality accommodations that you will find on all of our tours, whether it is a bed & breakfast, lodge, or cabins. We want you to be relaxed and refreshed as you head out for each day's adventure. Some of our trips involve camping and you'll need to provide that equipment.

We limit our tour group size to around 12 guests. Some trips can handle a few more, some a couple less, but we want to be able to provide individual attention and instruction.

The comfort and safety of our guests is our primary concern. Our tours are designed to be small so that we can provide individual attention and instruction. Consequently, we are able to accommodate a fairly wide range of skill and fitness levels. If you are unsure of your abilities, please call us. We are always happy to assist you in determining which of our tours would be best for you.

We are very sensitive to the environmental impact of our tours and strive for minimal disturbance of the flora and fauna in the regions we visit. To help ensure the continued preservation of these areas, 10% of our net income from each tour is donated to a conservation effort located in the area. Guests may choose from a list of several organizations that their money can go to support.
