Hi, my name is Doug. I live in Mira Loma and own about 6 horses (give or take). I am a trail boss for a small mens riding club out of Norco. I usually pre-ride and ride about 8 to 10 spots a year. I like to ride in the all the local mountain ranges of Southern Ca. Being a rider has two advantages. First, I just like getting out and taking in the scenery. Second, I make sure I put myself in positions and places where I can do a lot of scouting in the off season. It is amazing what you can see and get close to on a four legged animal as oppose to a truck or motorcycle. As I get older, I am starting to realize that with all the access to public ground being shut down to motorized vehicles, the future of public land hunting maybe on horseback.

Although I do not presently own a horse, I usually manage to get in at least one pack trip per season. My Father-in-law is retired and packs most of the summer for a private outfit. I am glad to see a board where hunters who pack can exchange info.

My name is Stan and we pack in the Marble Mountain, Russian and Trinity Alps Wilderness areas. Currently running 28 mules and horses. Just finished a 2 month contract with the USFS in the Stanshaw area of the Marbles as ground support for 2 trail crews doing fire rehab work in the area. Same area that we supplied spike camps last year during the fires in the area.

Will be setting up elk camp next week for some hunters that drew the Marble Mountains tags that opens on the 9th. This year we'll split the group with some hunters going to Stanshaw while I'll take a couple to the Trinty Alps area.
