the world with all your troubles left far below Troubles caught me When I came down my troubles caught up to me in the form of a strep throat and 1 had to miss Tuesday ride to the Plateau Apparently the mountain lowers were really something to see but one of the highlights was pointed out by Ann Carter a rider from Salinas California As they passed below a group of hikers trooping along a path she noticed something that made her do a quick doubletake Moving along at the head of the column was a cat tail waving up from grass leading everyone at a good brisk pace That I would like to tune seen Wednesday I was feeling better and since the ride was to be fairly easy decided to go This trail led to Talc Lake where there used to be talc mining years ago The lake was the most beautiful one I ve ever seen so clear it was unbelievable Further out it turned to a lovely shade of green then to shades of blue depending on the way the sun was shining and the clouds drifting Across from where we stopped the mountain rose in a shale slope and then in a rocky ridge about three or four hundred feet high Over the top of this water from melting glacier poured in two thin streams As the wind one every now and then it was blown into a huge white plume roaring against the rocks before it settled down again poked along ONE OF THE unexpected wonders on a trail ride In the Rockies Is cupped in the

The fifth day we Just poked mailable female riders and he Crawley a tall blonde husky across the rear there with them playing catch with hat and try ng to him up in the river if I were young and single Hes one of the nicest people I ve met He like all the guides are extremely helpful You only have to mention any small problem and they re right there to fix it but sometimes I think they do a little more than is required The open ngs into our teepees ARE a little on the small side and I KNOW Mike was just being helpful when he saw me crouching down to crawl in but he really have to help me With the flat of the blade of an axe along meandering up and down the slopes and glorying in the sun passing by a chain of nine lakes till we reached Square Lake where the surface water was in constant ripples from the fish Jumping While the guides made lunch people headed off across the lake to fish while four of us went swimming and probably chased the fish away Someone found five baby bobbing along the water edge and there was a concerted rush to see them All through these Jaunts our guides were flitting around If you can flit on a horse both unobtrusively and obtrusively making sure that everything was going well They were a group of real characters who along with the cook made the ride the success It was Starting at the bottom of the totem there a Steve young goodlooking
