Itinerary description
We pieced several trails together to make a loop that allowed everyone to enjoy the trip. Still had some challenging uphill and downhill sections. One uphill section was gnarly enough to requires the use of utility poles as water bars. Still scratching my head as to how horses navigated this section. Views from the scenic overlook were really nice.

This is the first geocache I have found, while not actually looking for one!

Going downhill on a trail where small limestone rocks are sitting on top of larger limestone rocks makes for tricky footing.
