Chaparral Endurance Ride in Skull Valley

For years it has been a dream of mine to move to Skull Valley someday, based solely on what I can see from the highway driving through on my way to Prescott countless times... well this weekend, actually spending time in and riding this area has solidified that dream! What an incredible area...

The ranch where we camped:

Our camp:

Saturday, Sabrina did 50 miles on Jersey, and Brenda and I did 30 miles on Patch and Glory.
Shirley got us right before we headed out...







Shirley caught us as we came into...

The vet check - and LUNCH!






Lovely green trees mean a creek!

This is getting quite long so I'll blog today's ride tomorrow :)
