Chaz was our guide. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the various plants and trees along our ride. I felt safe and relaxed on my very first horse back experience.
Excellent experience

Make sure you bring plenty of water. A camelpack is best. The guides do a great job educating about the local terrain and history.
Rain was great!
