In their judgement it was not an incredible risk.  For some people it might 
be.  Maybe I wouldn't do it - but then I don't have the incredible level of 
skills and experience with horses and that particular trail that the Lewis 
family has, either.  It is an incredible risk to do many things in this 
world if you aren't prepared, endurance riding is a risk for rider and 
horse if you aren't prepared - but skill and experience changes 
everything.  I don't think luck had a lot to do with Cliffy's safe and 
happy finish.  Lif
