Dry but pretty

  • Trail: State Land - Burrow Canyon
  • Miles: 7.56
  • Riders: Self
  • Horses: Jack
  • Dogs: Groot

Notes: Made a loop toward the power line and behind the backside of the mountain dropping into Burrow Canyon. A good thing about this unusually hot/dry year is there isn't that much vegetation for the snakes to hide in. I'm still surprised we didn't cross paths with them taking this cross country route. A bad thing about the dryness is the ground gives way underneath your horses hooves where the critters have been burrowing. There's no warning...your just trotting along and bam...your horse sinks in a hole up to his knee. Jack fell on his nose twice and he never goes down that far. 

Every home should have a hitching post in the driveway
