i was on the trai and that was the looking down below it is not part of the trail. maybe that makes more sense the grade of the cliff was almost straight down and the trail sort of went along the side of the top of the mountain. there was no where to get off the trail if someone was coming from the other direction. if you horse spooked and jumped the wrong way, you were going down the cliff.
maybe that made more sense i am not good at explaining things sometimes.

Oh - I see. It's deceptive to the eye! My eye saw it as looking ~up~ a bank, not down one. Nevermind me! :~D
Could a horse back up? I was wondering about that last night. I hate to get anywhere that only has one way out. It looked very narrow but did you have room to get off?
