I have found out, however, that he absolutely hates going through stinging nettles. 
 
*Yes, darn smart horse...the stinging nettles (NOT native to Calif); should be avoided at all costs; some horses at Pt. Reyes that were ridden into nettles ,or tied to trees where nettles were up to leg level, DIED, from  massive allergic reaction to them...when I ride at Pt. Reyes, I totally avoid the nettle trails untless they have been mowed...although splint boots can help protect the legs...
