About our burros

Pinto and Marlon Brando are miniature Mediterranean donkeys that carry cold drinks in their panniers, pose for pictures and simply adore scratches and treats.

Naturally charming and curious, our attention loving donkeys would love to add a unique spin to your next event!

Available for all event styles, let our adorable long-eared bartenders assist in serving your wedding, birthday party, corporate gathering or next celebration.

Serving Aspen, the Roaring Fork Valley, Vail, Steamboat Springs, Summit County, Telluride, Moab and more throughout the Western Slope!

AJ Frye

Professional chef, long-distance paraglider, donkey wrangler and mule packer, AJ Frye is a man of many talents. Whether he is paragliding from Rifle to Denver, exploring the backcountry by mule or crafting an unforgettably delicious meal for your next dinner party, AJ brings a uniquely-honed sense of adventure to everything he does.

Marlon Brando

Brando earned his movie star name from his (not so tall) dark and handsome looks. Unlike his Oscar-winning namesake, 8 year-old Brando is a joy to work with and a total sweetheart! He’s happy to follow his best buddy Pinto anywhere!

Pinto

AJ’s original donkey and in many ways, still the best! 8 year old Pinto is our bravest donkey. Whether he is wagging his ears to live music at your party, running a half marathon or crossing a river en route to a high mountain pass, Pinto is up for anything- especially if there are treats!

adventure

Not only are our burros professional party animals, they are also mountain donkeys! Our four donkeys love adventure, and we love bonding with them in the backcountry.

Whether we are packing a charcuterie picnic up to Capitol Lake or a multi-day epic, our burros are happy to carry much more than beers.
