    Now this trail is one I've ridden on twice lol. First time my gelding was trying to throw us off the trail into the river going the Raymond direction (he was all sorts of out in his back, neck... everywhere, and has bad ulcers. Apparently he hates group rides, too, because that was a rough day 9_9). Second time I was on my thoroughbred mare doing our first endurance ride at the Midnight Rider staged from what is now called the Owl and Olive.

    Loved the video. Can you tell me about your saddle. Right now I am using a western barrel saddle. Yours looks really comfortable, how do you like it, how much does it weigh? I am looking for a light saddle because I have worsening arthritis in my back and lifting is hard. Can you tell me who the maker is of your saddle? Sorry to have so many questions, please keep the video's coming.

    You must have gotten there early. By noon, it is mostly filled with cars. I never go on a weekend because it is so busy. When I ride the seasonal trails, I prune & lop overhanging vegetation to help keep the trails open for riding. If everyone carried pruners & small loppers, they could really help, too! Thank you for the video. God Bless!

    We were there on a Tuesday. I agree, I avoid WC on weekends and carrying pruners is a great idea. I often do that when I'm riding alone or with just one other person. Thank you for helping keep the trails clear.

    Check out Groundwork Collective, 3 Saddle Bums, NW Equine trails, EquineVideoProd. All very different but each have positive aspects. I live in Oregon, ride a Kentucky Mtn horse and have an older OTTB who's retired. I trail ride & horse camp. Your a lucky lady, your mare seems to be a great partner with you. Take your time finding the right dog. Not all dogs are good trail dogs, even the ones who's owners claim they are. Trail dogs should be 100% voice controlled or left @ home. I used to ride with a gal who insisted on bringing her Jack Russell on our rides but after 6 Mos of her dog running off during the ride and her asking for us to go back and find him every time I stopped riding with her. Check out you local animal shelters. Rescue a new bestie! Good luck and happy trails!
