So, it's not a skiing TR, just a trip to Cataloochee Ranch a few weeks ago. After hiking up to Hemphill Bald, I really wanted to ride their horses up there. They have great horses and they're not "deadheads". They will keep you on your toes and hopefully, off your butt! I like that!

2slikstix, 3-3 1/2 hour ride. Is your daughter already riding? The horses we rode were a bit skittish because there was some logging going on at that time along the trail, but I think they have quieter, more calm mounts. We registered as advanced riders, but I saw some small children on quiet horses.
