Hi folks,
My husband and I are thinking about heading east to do this ride, if we can get the week off.  Can anyone tell me about it?  What are the trails like?  Rocky? Sandy?  Amount of hoof protection needed?  Our horses are shod...is that adequate?  How difficult are the trails?  Hilly, flat, etc.?  I'm trying to determine the number of days my horse could do...he's just getting started in 50s (done 3 so far).
 
Thanks in advance,
Dawn in East Texas
Dawn, 
  I have rode one day once.  So I will forward your email to Tamra Schoech the ride manager.  This is a super well managed ride.  Some gravel, you will see a project there that SERA helped fund with the Forest Service.  Trails aren't flat, are challenging, some gravel.  And the music Saturday night, is worth driving down for without horses!
