how to herd cows or saddle up to scout out some nearby wild

many Quarter Horses, the guest ranch also has 16 mustangs that
have been gentled from the wild in their riding string. Advanced
riders may get the chance to try one of them out.
When you're not in the saddle, you can venture down the
road to Mackey Custom Hats to get your own cowboy hat, try
your hand at fly-fishing, trapshooting or archery, or you can
canoe, hike, bike or enjoy a 4x4 Jeep tour.
