==========================================

An update on this ride...
You all should make sure you put this ride on your schedule.  It will be great! 
I've been helping Winnie (the ride manager)  mark trail and she is doing a 
great job.  The ride is on a 4,000 acre  private ranch that is a commercial 
trail ride operation.

It is just beautiful, springs, rock bottom creeks,  pastures, tree filled 
hollows and views that go to the horizon.

I swear  I didn't see any other houses or power lines from most of the trail.  
This area of Missouri is so scenic .

The trail will be a 17 mile loop done twice, and an 8 mile loop done twice for 
the 50's.  

The 17 and the 8 mile loops done once  for the 25.

You guys will love the 8 mile loop, you can just fly on the ridge top  and the 
pastures.

The ride has varied terrain, some of it rocky, a lot of it is pasture and ridge 
top without any rocks.  Some pretty good climbs and descents.

If you can believe it, Winnie   has been "kicking" the rocks off the trail when 
she finds them.  This all the while she is saying "I hate those big rocks!"  
She is working really hard to make this a great trail.

The campground has electric and water at many of the sites.  A bathhouse and 
restroom are available.  The campground is easily accessible.  I've taken my  
big "monster" rig and my smaller bumper pull in and out with no problem.  

So now that you have been given my preview, I hope you will come to the Panther 
Creek ride to see for your self.  See you there!
