Carrie and Andy Guerrero have been out scouting around for good trail rides for
BARUC members to go on this year and they have come up with quite a few. If
you have questions about any of the rides, call Carrie Guerrero at 697-1436 or
carrieguerrero@valornet.com Most rides will check your Coggins papers so you’ll
need to always have the yellow copy of your Coggins available. Sometimes we
"caravan" from the arena and other times we just drive on our own and meet at the
site. Your horse will need shoes for most rides.
