MTR is a lot!

What Mesquite Trail Ride is... in a nutshell!
A camping with your horse event. Everyone arrives Thursday and sets up their own camp area within our large camping area. Friday and Saturday morning we provide hot breakfast with cowboy coffee daily. Every day we have scheduled guided round trip horseback rides from camp. Every evening we provide dinner under the big tent. Everyday there are many fun activities planned but you are not obligated to participate. We would love for you to consider joining us and invite your friends! Sunday, after a short morning ride, we tear down camp, and everyone is excited to return the following year!
