They stopped the National Forest rides, did you know?
For now, they are only riding the resort land behind Alpine Ranch, or
making the loop to the dam and back in the woods by Country Hideaway.  I
think by next summer, they will have a resort circuit ride around the
lake-they were making trails when we were there.

A friend and I were talking about this very thing yesterday morning.
Apparently a year or so ago, they made a law that forbade horseback
riding on NF roads and trails.  She heard that it was repealed last
summer, but wasn't sure if it was true.  Maybe someone here will know.
We live off miles and miles of NF roads and trails that just beg for
horses, so it would be great if it really was nixed.  Funny, they let 4
wheelers ride here, and cars, but no horses.  That's just stupid, IMO.
