Left Hand Fork

Landon finally convinced me and the kids(though they didn't need to much convincing) to take a overnight horse ride with him up to left hand fork. I figured I might as well try it, one time couldn't hurt, and then if it turned into a disaster he wouldn't ever ask me to go again.

We left Thurs morning:

Everything is looking good at the trailhead the kids are happy and ready to ride

Here we are heading out, but wait one of those horses is missing a rider. Yes due to a little rodeo action from Frosty while he was tied to the trailer and waiting to go, with Tanner on his back I might add, Tanner decided it would be in his best interest not to go on the ride. Grandma to the rescue she was able to come pick him up at the trailhead before we left.

Here we are when we stopped for a little rest and a little fun it looks like. There's Chloe's cowboy hat from the yardsale she decided to let Geno or Unicorn as she called him (due to the bumb on his nose) wear her hat for a minute.

Chloe finally decide she was sick of riding with Mom so she hopped and Frosty and rode him most of the way to camp, she even had time to do a little stunt riding. Shown below

We finally made it to camp after about 3 hours I think, all in all the ride went pretty smoothly. We were all pretty tired when we go there but we had some time to play in the creek and Landon was even able to catch a few fish.

We headed back down when we woke up today. Good thing we left early so we weren't in the heat.

For the most part I think the trip was a success, we had no major problems. Just the norm a couple horses being stubborn at times, Clem truning around a following another group of riders, and a couple of bruises and alot of soreness. Chloe did get stepped on by one of the horses, but all is well and she was up and running in no time, luckily it hit just right so it more scrapped it and left a bruise than doing any other damage. It was fun, but I'm not sure I'll plan on going again anytime soon, but thanks for taking us Landon.
