Trail Ride!
Help plan the annual ride for the Shadow Riders Horse Club.
1. Fill out the Trail Permit for your own club. You will have at least one packhorse to
carry gear.
2. Remember, you need three liters of water for each person on the packhorse, plus each
person will carry a two liter canteen.
3 . Plan and report the food you will carry for your trip. You will not need to carry
hay, but horses like a bit of oats at camp.
4. Choose and mark your trail for a good overnight trip. There is water for the horses at
the stops along the way.
Finally report your trip, what did you see? What stories did you tell around the
campfire? How did you like your trip to the Superstition Mountains?
You may enjoy researching Superstition Mountain trails for photographs and trail
reports.
