I hadn’t been out to the riding area at Redman Ranch (Trimbelle, WI) since last summer so I was surprised today to see all the improvements to the parking lot/pit area. (Click images to enlarge.)
Left: a patio with picnic tables and a firepit
Center: a dirt pit with some splatter practice ledges
Right: many more obstacles, some partially buried for stability
