Horse Back Riding

August 3, 2005 Fun Valley, Colorado

It was a beautiful morning and couldn’t have been a better time to go horseback riding in Fun Valley. We had a group of about 15 people and 3 guides. One guide led the way and the others followed, keeping everyone in line and together. At one point, a guide had to ride ahead to clear the trail of cows that were grazing.

The 2 hour ride was up and down the mountains and across some streams. We were on some steep up and down hill climbs with many rocks. The horses took their time so as not to stumble. While waiting for all the horses to descend, Joni’s horse got spooked by another horse and “plowed” into the group of horses. It shook her up a bit, but Delton thought it was funny. We had a great day.
