[RC] need ideas for good horse area in the west - k s swigart

Flora and Fran said:

We'd like to hear about areas that don't have lots
of oppressive summer heat, huge amounts of snow
or rain, or major insect problems.  We do love
mountains, so it would be nice to have some nearby
with ample trail access.  We do not compete, but we
do extensive trail riding at endurance training ride
speed :-)  We also plan to start doing a lot of packing.

Sounds an awful lot like Bishop, California to me; or anyplace else that
is "high desert" so I think it also sounds kinda like Oreana, Idaho but
Steph would know more about that.  Other places include the Reno/Sparks
area as well as Tropic, Utah (except maybe for the Costco within 100
miles part).  There are also probably some places in both Arizona (like
Sedona, Prescott or Flagstaff, depending on which you prefer a little
less heat in the summer or a little less snow in the winter) and New
Mexico that meet this description.

You could probably also find some areas on the western slope of the
Sierras as well (although they will probably be pricier, less hot in the
summer, but more precipitation in the winter).
