Horseback Riding

 

 

Some trails are shared with Hikiers, or cross-country skiers in the winter months. The hiking and horse trails are often linear, while the cross-country and interpretive (nature) trails are usually loops of varied lengths.

Notice:Beginning May 15, 1999, some sites require a vehicle pass under the Recreation Enhancement Act . Vehicle passes may be purchased at Forest Service Offices or from local vendors.
