| Ride at your own risk! Use your own judgment at all times. Stay in a group, you are out of cell phone range. Sign a waiver releasing us of all responsibilities. Follow the ribbons closely, they suggest the safest route. Make responsible decisions about where to ask your horse to go. Don't let juniors roam away from you. Don't let juniors lead their horses down steep slopes or on narrow or slippery parts of the trail, they are safer in the saddle. Leave open gates open, close the gate you find closed, so the cattle don't get mixed up. Leave dogs at home or tied in camp, you'll come across cattle and wildlife, and they might spook other horses! Don't hassle the cattle in any way. |
