The trip
begins in South Twin River canyon. Here you will ride through
beautiful rocky creek bottoms, leading into lush green mountain
meadows. On previous trips we have seen Mule Deer, Golden Eagles,
Chukar, Sage and Blue Grouse. Some nights we are fortunate enough
to be sung to sleep by wild coyotes.
Leaving
the meadows we head into the higher elevations, riding as high
as 10,000 feet and as low as 7,000 feet. Aspen Groves, Pinyon
Pine, Mountain Mahogany, and hundreds of different wildflowers
show the beauty of Nevada few get to see.
Other interests
of your ride will be your mount. Half of our riding horses were
at one time Native Nevada Mustangs. They have been tamed and make
excellent riding horses. You may bring your own horses, but be
advised the trail requires mountain savvy horses. The ride is
also long, so your animal should be in top condition.
The ride
will end four days later in Kingston Canyon. This is approximately
sixty-eight miles north of our starting position. We prefer to
keep our trips to no more than six people. We can accommodate
up to twelve people with advanced notice.
Come and
explore the beauty and wonder of the Toiyabe Mountains.
