Another awesome group of our cabin guests took on a different half day ride Saturday going up the Current river. Stacey, Katie & Haley is a returning guest who had brought her husband on a half day ride earlier this year. She came with her riding buddy Lisa this time to ride and spent the weekend in one of our cabins. Mandy from Union came for the day to do our half day ride as well.
