The organization’s last two Trail Bosses have gradually made some changes. We branched out to include other trails in the area, we sped up the pace of the rides, and increased the length (time and distance) of the rides. We have tried to accommodate many different kinds of horses and riders... Quarter horses, gaited horses, endurance riders, etc. We have become a very diverse group and we like it that way!

We usually have a rainy season in the spring. Many of our trails are in low-lying areas. Our alternate place to ride will generally be the Grasslands, because the terrain and soil allow for quick drainage. It really is important to call before you load them up! Bring your Coggins papers and "call before you haul".
