We were really hoping we might get lucky and most of the rain would miss us…but unfortunately we’ll have to postpone our first buddy ride. Stay tuned for a date!!

Ok as of today, forecast is not looking promising for a trail ride this weekend. But I will keep ya’ll updated as best I can as far as if/when trail guides will be riding on Sunday 10/10. If we do get rained out again this weekend, we’ll unfortunately have to scratch the October buddy ride and wait for November [date TBA].

In the meantime, this fake forecast made me laugh so it gets to be this post’s ’pic for attention’ 🐴

In all seriousness though, hope everyone stays safe out there ⛈️

Well friends, I’m sorry to say this is our LAST WEEKEND of 7-day/week riding.

We return to hunting season hours on September 1, which means SUNDAYS ONLY until May 15, 2027.

We’ve had a good run this summer and hope you’ve had some wonderful rides. We’d love to hear about them in the comments!

REMINDER: STAY ON THE MARKED TRAIL!!!

We are seeing photos of groups off-trail and down by the water. We get that it’s hot out, but we have worked incredibly hard to be able to use these game lands to ride. Breaking the rules set out by WRC puts that at risk. Please stay on the marked trail.
