One of the main reasons why I got the helmet camera is for trail riding. So here are some pictures from TC and my trail ride up the hill this weekend. I didn't have to take out my phone at all! Just had to look at what I wanted to see later.
Unfortunately the air quality must have gotten worse as we rode, it was in the 50s when I checked but was definitely almost 100 by the time I got back. It came on really slowly so I didn't notice until I looked at the video. Ugh. So excuse the smogginess, TC got the next day off and I am now checking purple air right before I get on!
| The road up the hill |
| We went on the small trail out to the bowl and actually went all the way around it! It's a very narrow trail at some places with a big dropoff but TC was happy to do it |
| That trail leads to this view, which again, how did I not realize how bad it was outside? It really did sneak up on me! Ugh! |
| On our way back to the main area of the trails |
| My dad built this bench for my parents to go sit at in the evenings to look down at the ranch from! |

Our air quality was 114 yesterday with practically no fires around - just sooooo much dust! Kids and ponies were blowing away in the wind. Looks like such a beautiful area for riding <3 Loved the last GIF - how cool that you can now capture the wildlife encounters with your helmet cam! I regularly run into duiker, jackal, deer (no idea where they came from since they're not indigenous), herons, and eland.
