For various reasons, mostly because the were going over terrain that got in 
the way <g>.

Seems like the longer trailers have the most problems, as do the ones that 
have their plumbing installed lower than others.

As far as I know, only three people have gotten stuck (and of course, got 
unstuck).  Several flats, at least two rigs dented and dinged up, one 
broken axel on a trailer.  Some trailers coming apart (screws working 
loose, stuff like that)  One horse with a rope burn (the group is doing 
much better this time preventing rope burns).  Several horses with 
scratches, some of the uninitiated were unaware --- not anymore! 
:+P  Couple of people got in fights and left, most are learning to work it 
out.  This kind of thing is a great test of any relationship.  People 
either love it or hate it.

They are now heading towards more and more civilization so will be able to 
send updates and photos more often.  Wish I could repack and head back!!
