Looking back down toward Lyon Ridge trail from beside Cougar Rock

Continuing up, this is the toughest part; horses need to hop up through these rocks. The rider needs to grab mane and stay well forward, off the rein.

EasyCare's hoof boot brands include the Easyboot Glove and the Easyboot Glue-On. The barefoot horse and Easyboot made history in 2010 when The Fury won the coveted Haggin Cup using Easyboot Glue-Ons.
