You're so lucky to have places like that you can just ride to. More and more, I'm thinking I want to build our stable adjacent to our state forest trails. I think it'd be worth a little bit further drive to the stable to have access to trails like that.... much better than an arena in town. Wouldn't you think so, if you were a boarder?
I'd definately want to board someplace where there was access to trails, even if I had to drive farther and pay more, coz if you don't, you're gonna have to load up and trailer someplace else every time you want to ride, so it evens out in the end.
