Activity Cards

Join us for this combination hiking and yoga program in Bommer Canyon. Participants will hike around a 1-mile loop, strolling through the local meadow and finding unity within nature. Then we will return to our yoga mats where we will be led in 45 to 60 minutes of guided yoga, as the canyon slowly warms up to the day.  Please wear comfortable clothes and bring a durable yoga mat to rest on the dirt. An extra blanket or padding is highly recommended. Some mornings are chilly, so dress in layers. Remember to wear sun protection for the hike such as a hat and sunscreen.

Cancelled Due to Weather

Be prepared to soak in the beauty and wonder of Weir Canyon, steeped in history and lore. The ride will travel through the floor of Weir Canyon, where the trail weaves its way through a beautiful oak woodland inhabited by deer, coyote, bobcat, and many different birds. You will travel the route of the Butterfield Stage and see a monument dedicated to the Mexican ox cart drivers. If time permits, we will climb to the Two Tower vista point to look at distant views. Staging area policy dictates that we clean up after our horses. Please be prepared to haul your manure out.

Please bring water on the ride.

This ride travels on wide trails with several easy to moderate climbs. Equestrians are welcome, who have trail riding experience and their own horse, which is fit and able. You will need to transport your horse to the staging area. Owners of unshod horses, please note that footing will include areas of gravel and distances over asphalt pavement.”
