the under ice water movement

Trail Mammoth Mules Ltd.

one spring day we went out  for a walk, took Hanna Creek Rd. wandering around a little bit when we got stopped by a gentlemen who happened to be the owner of the private land we were driving on... he welcomed us at his ranch and showed us his horses, mules and lamas. His name was Ron and this place was a big but wonderful surprise to us... I guess you never know what's behind the mountain you live so close to...
that was 3 years ago, I just checked the website www.mammothmules.com and it seems not to be working so maybe this place doesn't exist any more, I don't know...
