Knott Co Fall Horseback Trail Ride 2011

FINALLY, I present the first video I put together using clips taken with my trusty Nikon Coolpix camera. Little things while living life on Paradise Mountain have taken up alot of my time, but here is the FIRST video I put together from the famous 2011 FALL KNOTT COUNTY HORSEBACK TRAIL RIDE!

Knott County Ky Horse Trail Rides are THE largest horseback trail riding events in Ky. This Spring and Fall equine event is anticipated by horse lovers from all over the USA. Many come if they don’t ride a horse, wagon, buggy, mule, donkey, or if they don’t even own a horse, but for love of the great outdoors, the 1000’s of like minded people that camp at Knott Co campgrounds, to get together with good friends, good camp food, and for the beautiful scenery in the Appalachian Hills of Ky. Knott Co Trail Rides are held twice a year in Knott Co – Hindman Ky.

2011 Knott Co Ky Trail Ride is NOW

I ain’t even going to try and offer any explanation as to why I haven’t typed this up yet. I’ll take the fifth  and stick to that!! :p

THE Knott County Ky 2011 Fall Horse Trail Ride [and wagons, buggys, covered wagon, or a surrey if you choose) is NOW! Some of the more enthusiastic horse riding lovers, camping lovers, and some just Good Time lovers- yeah, wooh! – will have already gone to the campground earlier this week. Some people went as early as Monday to rope off a place for themselves and their crew..

If you set up camp with friends, you still meet many, many, – up to 14000+ – new people, lots of friends you made at the last Knott Co Trail Ride, or the one before that, or the one……- you get the picture, but still be with home folk when you come in from a ride to share the campfire with.

ADMISSION TO THE FALL 2011 KNOTT CO FALL TRAIL RIDE —> $15 p/p and kids have always been free.

Many people go to the campgrounds early in the week and set up camp, many stay the entire week, but the majority show up sometime on Friday and stay the weekend. Horse lovers from all over the United States show up for this event, and for good reason!

Get Ready for 2011 Spring Horse Back Trail Rides

Anticipating the 2011 Spring Horse Back Trail Rides in the various counties we’ll be riding in – such as KNOTT COUNTY SPRING 2011 HORSEBACK TRAIL RIDE, LEE CO SPRING RIDES, PATOKER, PARADISE MOUNTAIN TRAIL RIDES, somewhere in West Virginia- horseback trail rides,  😀 and others, I hated to hear that Owsley County Saddle Club will most likely NOT be having any trail rides this year.
I had a great time at the Fall 2010 Owsley Co Ky Fall Trail Ride, and got to see alot of old friends and met some fantastic new friends. But, thanks to another instance of the brilliance of our,uh-hmm, Law Enforcement agencies, there is a HUGE lawsuit against the Owsley County keystone cops and the Owsley County Saddle Club!
Will and I were checking out someone else’s 2010 Spring Trail Ride video on youtube at the beginning of this video as Larry watched us watching them! lol

Here’s to the good times Owsley County!

Winters Lake Ride

This was a fantastic day for horse back riding, so we did. This ride is what we call ‘The Lake Ride’ cause that’s what we are riding around, the Paintsville Lake. This is a huge lake, and deep. The head of this lake starts just right over the ridge from my home. We take our time and turn it into an all day ride. This ride is especially a good one for me… with the waterfalls and cliffs that are a never ending site.
