Several businesses and towns along the way make water hoses available for filling campers and horse tanks. There are also easily accessible campgrounds for camper septic dumping. This trail winds through the beauty of Federal and State Forests. On the west side of the state, we ride through some small towns. The terrain is varied, as would be expected in crossing the entire lower peninsula of Michigan.
Sand is the most common footing.
There are single tracks, forest roads, gravel roads and occasional stretches beside paved roads with good shoulders. Some areas are accessible only by horseback or foot. Tentative dates for 1998 are August 17th through 21st.
