A ride into Trapper and Section Corner

Bob wanted to see what the feed was like at Section Corner Lake. We rode up the Long Park Trail, which was a cuss to put it lightly. I was hoping our horses' shoes would make the trip..which they did..as did the horses fine.
We came out around by Glimpse Lake..and the views were out of this world. The above picture should be titled...horseback in the Rocky Mountains, or why these mountains are named the Rocky Mountains. This is a switchback coming out of Glimpse. The trail is actually very good.
The colors were phenomenal...what a gorgeous day. Notice Snip only has a pack saddle. She went along because we didn't want to leave her home alone.  We were riding almost eight hours this day.  Today the horses get a much deserved rest.

Spot pack up Scab Creek

We're at the trail head of Scab Creek. I'm leading Michael's horses Buckwheat and Cisco. Good horses, and even though we packed them light, or maybe because...they went up there easily..  Bob took Snip packed.

The sky was gorgeous with the mares' tails. It was a perfect day to ride in and out of there. We were horseback less than six hours this day. Dinner at the Stockman's...and a nice visit with Kay ended the day.
