RE: [RC] [RC] Pacing - Kathy Mayeda"Karen Sez: Meanwhile, we watched several riders trotting downhill in the snow while their horses slipped and slid all over the place. I did not want the other rider to feel as if she had to stay with me in case she wanted to go faster. I felt perfectly content walking that section. I was also envisioning how long it would take to get help if I were to end up the mushy filling in a horse-snow/ground sandwich. Anyways -- the other rider (you know who I am referring too since you were there too -- and also walking and being careful, I might add)....says to me "we keep our horses longer than those people". Enough said!" Yeah, that's the scariest footing I've seen so far! Beau kept on wanting to trot down it - I guess it was easier for him to keep his balance by skiing instead of walking. Sure was beautiful, though - gave us a lot to talk about when we got back. I'm glad I didn't go the wrong way THIS year! Wrong Way Mayeda =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
