Nice scenic ride. Wish they would provide more instruction. My daughter had never been on a horse…read moreand they gave her no direction and when the dang horse started "grazing" in the trees and trying to brush her off by taking her through the trees, the guide said not to touch the reins or try to maneuver the horse out of the brush/trees and she would just "follow the herd" which was a bit ridiculous. She had no control over the horse, and was told not to try to gain any kind of control over her. She was told not to touch the reins, which was stupid he said she would be fine as long as the trail ride kept moving but then would stop to talk to everyone, and this horse would go off trail through the trees again and he would yell at her telling her not to touch the horses reins. He also told my mother in law that she had to kick her horse harder to make him go faster, but the horse was either lame or had an injury on his hoof and couldn't go faster probably because he was in pain. We hadn't noticed this until reviewing pictures I took while on the ride his hoof was bandaged up maybe from an abscess. My mother in law said I have been kicking him he isn't going any faster, and the guide said "you're meaning to tell me you have been on that horse for 30 minutes and know him better than me, and I've been around him for 3 years?! I guess we all learn something everyday don't we?! Ha!" It was a nice ride overall, just wished they gave some more instruction to first time, younger riders about how to ride a horse and not just sit on one. I used to barrel race and not having control of your horse and being told not holding the reins of a horse is just a dumb and dangerous idea honestly. They literally just put my daughter on a horse and didn't give any instruction. In hindsight this was my fault for putting her in that situation but it luckily went ok, and I'm glad she wore a long sleeve shirt and I tried to instruct her and she was able to back the horse up out of a tree, towards the end of the ride because I had to tell her not to listen to him grab the reins and pull that horse back! Great ride if you are an experienced rider, but I would advise against this for a newer or nervous rider.

This is a beautiful hiking spot with plenty of trails and nice scenery. The views of the mountains…read moreand the rock formations are extremely beautiful. What is also really nice is since this trail is near most of the ranches and farm land, there are ranchers and farmers who take their horses through here to help get them air and train them as well as practice with them too. What I really like about this trail is how there are parts that seem to show the remains of maybe where ranches maybe used to be. The fences and the feeding trays for livestock are still here and it's nice to see. And then there is the distance as well as time it could take to complete certain trails too. So be careful you don't get lost or miss the exit and end up looping around in circles. I would still check out this trail but watch your step as the horses may leave feces on the trail.

Staying at the Hat Ranch was our first AirBnb experience for our wedding anniversary. Our stay was…read morethe final stop on a six day camping trip, and this was our chance to sleep in a nice bed and shower before we headed back to civilization. So glad we chose the Hat Ranch, as it suits our outdoor style to a "T". The directions in were very easy to follow, and our Toyota Tacoma picked up a beautiful red patina of Arizona dust. Sharon, our host, greeted us at the main house and then escorted us to our quarters. As this was our first time here, she took extra time explaining all about our stay, which included a home cooked breakfast today. You can Google the Historic Hat Ranch for all the cool details, but suffice to say there are some very presidentially mended fences here on the expansive 2,800 acres. Our room was very nice, twin beds and a nicely appointed bathroom. Also a spacious deck to view the open Ranch space. We opened the windows and breathed in the fresh air...scented with juniper and noble fir trees right out our door. We didn't see any, but Sharon told us Elk frequented the area often. Many other wild creatures to see too, including javelinas. The baby colt on the way in made my wife's day, and he quickly posed for some pictures and romped away. This has been a perfect cherry on the top of our anniversary Sunday. If you love the outdoors and crave a rustic Ranch experience with warm hospitality, the Hat Ranch is the place for you.

The Almosta trail system wanders through creek beds and mesas offering great views of Granite and…read moreLittle Granite mountain along with interesting geology. The large parking lot and well marked trail begins on Almosta Ranch Road about 0.7 miles west of Williamson Valley Rd on the left hand side. The first 15-20 minutes of the hike is near housing but ample vegetation makes the trail feel private. After the initial housing area, the trail starts down a rocky canyon and into a wash area with intermittent running water alongside granite and layered sandstone outcrops. This canyon area is the only real steep portion. You can hike almost as long as you like on the main trail #622 which heads southwest, but a nice ~ 7.5 miles lollipop loop is to take a right on trail #625 shortly after crossing Mint Creek wash, a gate and corral. Hike about a mile west/southwest to the junction with 627 and lake a left. 627 has great views of Granite mountain and is a fairly flat section with some nice open grass land areas. 627 meets up again with 622 in about a mile, turn left on 622 and head back to the parking lot. From this section of trail 622 you will have views north and west, so the complete loop affects views in all directions. This trail would be great with spring flowers, after a rain (being careful about flash floods), or with fall color. We only saw one other hiker on our trip.
