It was actually pretty fun. I wish that Mark and I were in better shape though; we were panting up and down some of the steep hills! We actually walked most of the trail where it is setup for trail riding; had to dodge a lot of "road obstacles" too Our horses really are not trained well enough yet to take out safely, but next year I am whipping them into shape; too much happened this year with the wedding and all..
We were kind of stupid for not taking along a snack or drinks; we will definately do that next time!
We found out that this is where an older local guy had a heart attack and died several years back. He had left a note that he was going out hiking, and had parked his car in the lot and gone, and died and was found out on the trail. But then again, this seems like a much better way of dying to me than in a hospital bed..
