Finally got out and about

[Deertick]

Well, the wind, amazingly, was down today, and though there were some flurries, and not much sun, I was headed out. Cabin fever be damned.

The USFS has finally noticed that spring is when \"new roads\" appear, going around snow drifts, and so they\'ve shut off access to the unit closest to home. Once I got more than a mile from the gate, there was no one out there ... had the place to myself. Made an 11 mile loop, but didn\'t find a shed, nor see any game.

Brad ... he\'s only 1/8 Paint (apparantly the outside!) ... 7/8 Arab.

He\'s about a solid a horse as you can get ... only 8 years old ... he did >800 miles competitively last year, including the Bighorn 100 ... 100 miles in 1 day (23 hours and 30 minutes, in his case!) I can\'t say enough good about him.

Yep, you can definitely see the Muslim in him. They are an amazing breed when it comes to endurance.
