TRAIL RIDE AT WHITE TANKS Fall is a wonderful time to saddle up and hit the trail. With sunny skies and falling temperatures the chilly mornings become warm afternoons and offer a perfect opportunity to meet up with other Appaloosa enthusiasts and enjoy the Arizona desert. Our fall outing this year was an easy stroll in the White Tank Mountains which is the largest regional park in Maricopa County totalling 30, 000 acres. The afternoon was a blast and the great
lunch ready at the end of the trail was a welcome treat! - Photos by Sonja Berry
