She WAS a good girl. ...Thanks, Kate & Aarene. She WAS a good girl. (Aarene, I'll try calling him tonight.)<br /><br />Jean, there wasn't anybody under 50 on this particular ride, and at least two of us were over 70! I figure by the time I reach that age, Kate will be a nice mellow 16, so maybe I'll still be at it. (Gee, wasn't it just last week I was ready to give up the whole equine proposition!)<br /><br />Lytha. I'm glad I brought back pleasant memories. The Salmon le Sac campground was closed last year (I think it got flooded out and had to be rebuilt), but I think it's open again now. There were only a couple of places on this particular trail that might give one pause, but I've heard there are others that like you describe. That's what I really appreciated about Kate on this ride, she was watching what she was doing, and thinking about both our safety. And the club rides through "Cicely, AK" at least once a year for lunch at the Old #3 in Ronald (posts in July of this year, and 2009).EvenSonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02032555334605790413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7824875335060501671.post-29320275126839882182011-08-05T10:54:28.148-07:002011-08-05T10:54:28.148-07:00i love that area so much! there is a horses only c...i love that area so much! there is a horses only campground at salmon le sac (by roslyn) and i put a geocache there cuz i was so thrilled that we camped in a park that said "Stock Users Only" haha! <br /><br />i have some lovely pics of my man and i riding out there and some of it was on cliffsides that really worried me. i almost couldn't look down.<br /><br />the mare took care of my man, and baasha enjoyed himself as i didn't make him carry me most of the way.<br /><br />there were odd people out there collecting oregon grape in big clusters and carrying them on their backs. that scares almost every horse! (what do they do with the oregon grape?)<br /><br />thank you so much for sharing pics and the story from this most precious area in our state.<br /><br />and i'm a northern exposure fan too!lythahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01719586193059362084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7824875335060501671.post-52291410661997099522011-08-05T10:22:24.061-07:002011-08-05T10:22:24.061-07:00What a beautiful ride, and what a good horse Kate ...What a beautiful ride, and what a good horse Kate is! I am so jealous - I would love to be doing this type of activity (though my back will not allow it) - these are the sorts of trails I backpacked in my younger, healthier years.
