[RC] Bandit Springs Ride - Ed & Wendy Hauser

Wendy and I went to our first PNER ride this weekend.  The Tribbys put on a
great ride.  The camp is a superb meadow in a Ponderosa fine forest.  The
trails, what I saw of them, are wonderful, if a bit dusty in places.  There
are some volcanic rocks, one of which had Ranger's name written on it.  He
pulled at 30 miles with, what I think is a stone bruise.  If it is still
sore today when I check we will be talking to the vet.

The vet staff was great.  I found that the head vet Gene Nance, rode many
years ago in the Midwest.  As with everyone who rode with AERC Hall of Famer
Louise Reidel, he had some great stories to share.  The vet staff worked
with the riders and did their best to get as many horses through, sound and
healthy, as they could.

The weather was a bit warm, and more humid than westerners are used to.
Some people had trouble getting their horses down at the end of the rides.
I think Angie should come west to the ride next year and do a clinic on
sponging and cooling in  humidity.

We met some very nice people and are sure that we will make friends to
supplement the UMECRA riders that we have become friends with over the last
10 years.
