Sawtooth riding – so good we did it twice


On Wednesday morning we rode the Lower Trail which took us round the lakes and it was so fantastic that we had a quick lunch then did the Upper Trail.
Steve had the same horse. My afternoon horse was very spirited so it made for an exciting ride, but no opportunity to whip out the camera as the sound of the Velcro on the camera case got him all jumpy. Having said that, the views here are so stunning, no photo or painting or poem could possibly capture them and do them justice.
The Upper Trail ride took us up towards the mountains through the forest, full of wild flowers.
If you like riding, can you imagine what it’s like to ride somewhere like this?
Our legs were feeling quite sore after so long in the saddle so we went to the lake and let the water soothe them. Steve’s still walking like John Wayne but thinks he might have progressed to Clint Eastwood in the morning.
