We just returned from Hayes Canyon horse camp. The riding to me is some of best in the country. Camp ground was clean. We enjoyed our eight days riding in Shawnee. Trails are not well marked but Hayes canyon map was good. I do believe that GPS or compass is a must. I use a GPS all the time and it did come in handy on one of our rides. Couple of things that I feel the camp needs to improve are the pens, there are three medal rods separating the stalls, I had one of my horses kick at the horse behind him and got his leg stuck. It took me and the camper next to me to get him freed up at 6:00am in the morning. Luckily his leg was not broken and only had minor scraps. The pens during the rain become very nasty and not much you can do about standing water. Pens need to have some limestone chips and be leveled so water can run off. Some of the campsites are not very level and could use some grading. Take some 2x6's or something to level your trailer |

Went to Hang 'Em High Horse Camp for the first time over the July 4th weekend. Owners Wendell and Sunni are great camp host that make you feel like family. Wow what a nice horse camp. One of the things I really liked about it was how easy it was to get to. It was only about 8 miles off I-75 and good roads. The camp is laid out very nicely with the campsites along the edge of the woods. Campsites are large, clean and level. Our horses were in the new barn. The stalls are large and airy. The stalls were clean and had plenty of saw dust for the weekend when we arrived. Although it was pretty hot, once you got out on the trails is was cool with plenty of shade and water. Trails are nice. It think they could be a little better marked but overall were pretty easy to follow for a 1st timer. I would highly recommend checking this place out if you haven't already. We have already made reservations to go back again. |

We have already made reservations to go back again this Oct. and next June. This is one camp that you need to put on your must ride list. |
