Trail Ride on Thunder Mountain

Utah’s weather has been warm and sunny lately, allowing people to participate in a wide range of outdoor activities. Some ski resorts are open and skiers and riders are having fun working the slopes. Conditions statewide are great right now for hiking, biking, jeeping and other adventures.

I took the opportunity to go on a trail ride over Thunder Mountain, located down in Bryce Canyon Country. We didn’t even need jackets as we saddled up in Red Canyon and rode up into the hoodoos, pinnacles and other interesting rock formations.

We rode with Marty Rich, owner and operator of the Bryce Canyon Pines motel and Red Canyon Trail Rides. He knows the country well and guided us on a very enjoyable ride.

This short video clip shows the trail ride.
