Blue Trail -------11.00 miles

This weekend will be a crowded one and parking is limited at Trace Trails as we welcome NATRC for an event! We are still open but recommend pink or red trails for daily riders!
NATRC has reserved the parking areas under the trees and the picnic areas so we ask all day riders to park out in the field, and regular campers to set up away from the shaded area as well.
Well I guess this is a thing!?

It’s that time again, ALREADY! I feel like time is moving fast and I’m a few weeks late with my reminder but as you all should remember….memberships expire every February 28th.
Get those renewals in please! We will be mailing/handing out parking passes towards the end of this month.
Happy Trails!
I don’t remember who it was, but someone lost some keys awhile back(looks like they are for your trailer lock maybe?)
Whoever took the water trough from the trailhead some time this last week….you could have at least taken one of the older ones instead of the shiny new one….

Sometimes we forget that not everybody who enjoys our place is aware of the endurance ride schedules.
The assumption is everyone is aware… but in case you weren’t THIS weekend 15,16,17. there is a large endurance event and we will not be open to general riding.
Anybody lose a pocket knife out here in the last month or so?

By now everyone should be aware of the ongoing EHV-1 outbreak. Out of an over abundance of caution and the upmost respect for neighboring horse owners, whose pastures butt up to our trail system, riding at Trace Trails will be by invitation only until Dec. 1. Please call/text Steven at 903-343-8191 with any questions.
