Closing the summer season of trail rides, camping trips, and horse back riding at Breitenbush in September, IS horses and mules ' were moved to Big Meadows.

Catching 18 horses in a big mea dow, acres wide, would be con sidered a colossal undertaking by anyone not schooled in horse train ing. Ware however, says "a bucket of oats is better than a rope." Soon horses and mules were crowding around him trying to be caught.
