Re: [RC] Nervous or Crazy - jamie

It's only scary if you look down.

Gotta agree with Joe.  Not only is it wide, it is
flat and has relatively good footing.  A great place
to make up some time.  Unfortunately you usually get
behind some nervous person that takes it a crawl and
although it is wide, it is not wide enough to pass
an unfamiliar horse with a nervous rider.
  And Jim wondered why everyone is leaning to the
left.  This ride is in California remember.

Hey Bruce, look familiar? Here is a link of photos

of Pucker Point. Yes, I

was "crazy" enough to have my camera out as we rode

over this section of

trail. Click link below, then over on the right,

click next for the series

of the next 5 photos of the trail.

????? That's a wide trail. Try some of the trails at
Tellico Plains, Tennessee
sometime. Or parts of the Keyhole route (hikers
only, no horses) up Long's Peak
in Colorado. http://www.rnbw.com/LongsPeak.html for
some photos. Note the
red-and-yellow bulls-eyes you can see on the rocks
in some of the photos; that's
what marks the trail.

The narrowest and scariest horse trail I ever rode
was in Idaho, riding in a
line of about five or six of us, when we came out on
this "scratch" in the
rockface and trotted across, with a sheer drop
below. I just gave Kahlil slack
rein and held on!
