or a cooling swim if you like with your horse.
Our place has rolling hills, creek bottoms and wooded areas, as well as pasture land.
We have primitive camping right now, but bring your generators. We don’t have any stalls yet ether, but tie lines and corals are welcome. We have water for the horses and ice for your coolers. Camping is free for CTC. The Loco volunteer fire department will be cooking the food for the ride and the money for the food will go to them for there EMT services on the ride. So come hungry!
