History:
In 1998, Terry St.Louis and Butch Henningsen started the group.     
The St.Louis family and the Henningsen's moved to Elko
for work.  Butch and Terry's husband worked together at a mine in   
Utah before moving to Elko.  Working Different shift,
Terry and Butch didn't have anyone to ride with. We took a ad out    
in our local paper.  Hence here we Are!

Trail
Gold Creek July 2009

God blessed us with beautiful weather.
The trip started out with Two flat tires,
one on my travel trailer and one on Shirley's
travel trailer.   Shirley was lucky, the others
notice her flat tire right away.  Unfortunately
my tire was in ruins because I didn't feel the
blow out.  Layne had to go back into town on
Tuesday, so she volunteer to get the tires fixed
and get more supplies.
Katie step on my big toe on the first day, We all
think its because I took her on our trip.  We
have been during this trip now for four years
and every time I have gone she has been injury
so i would have to take my husbands horse.
My toe was pretty darn sore for two days!!!
Layne ,however had to out do me!  Nell step on
her toe and broke it and also broke her thumb.
Layne had to go home a day early because of the
injury.  I went by her office to pay her for my
tire and I must say the thumb was a very
pretty yellow/blue color.
The last day of riding, was very hot so we
decided to ride in the late afternoon.
We came upon a beaver pond right next to the
two track road we were riding on.
The beaver was just as curious about us as we
were of him.   He would swim around and then
flap his tail and dive under water and than
come back up. This went on for about 5
minutes.
Friday, we pack up and headed home.
Terry had to clean up the travel trailer and
head back out on Saturday morning for Tooele
Utah for Barrick reunion.
Where do we go next year?
The Sierra's?
Great Basin National Park?
Or Jarbidge wildness area?

Layne and Shirley were the newbie's this year
on our girl trip.  They said they are hooked  I
hope so because the rest us had a wonderful
time.
Happy trails to all until next time!!!
