Description

Adventure begins on trails traversed by mule driven ore carts as part of the arduous journey miners of the 1800s used while seeking their fortunes. Ride along this rugged, mountainous terrain and around unique cactus gardens. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for a glimpse of indigenous wildlife!
