Because I have to be here for the moment, ... When you're riding a horse, you're right there at that moment. You can't be thinking about work. You can't be thinking about what you need to do next week.
It's beautiful country. We want to be able to see it.
Because we want to maintain access into the back country, ... For our enjoyment and everyone else's enjoyment.
I don't want to hike in anymore, ... I want to ride. I can cover a lot more ground when I'm riding. I can get to those high mountain lakes that are 15 miles from the trail head.
And just being out here it's a sanity-reviver. After spending a week, five days, in the office in a cubicle where I hardly ever get to look out.
