Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These are a few of the author's many numerous and humorous adventures on horseback in the Trinity Alps, Yosemite and the Pacific Crest Trail here in Californy. This edition is 8.5 X 11 softcover and is complete with full color images of these adventures. Wilderness Adventures on Horseback is an amazing read of the true, back-country adventures of gutsy horses and stalwart friends. The equine characters tackle trails "impassable" to horses, rickety bridges over chasms, and slick-rock granite passes at lofty elevations. The intrepid friends push themselves to their sometimes frightening, other times admirable, and many times hilarious limits. The author refers to many trails as "E-ticket rides," and that's what I guarantee the reader will get!
