[pct-l] Horse etiquette

[Charles Williams]

No one is asking you to do something that isn't safe.  If it is truly too steep of a slope to stand on (and that happens) and the trail is only 18 inches wide, then you should back-track to a safer place to cross paths.  I know, it doesn't seem fair that you should have to back track, but turning a string of mules around, or even turning around a group of horsemen, in those same circumstances is asking for an accident.  I'm sorry about the inconvenience I'll cause you, but the right of way is ours for good reason.

I REALLY dislike watching hundreds of pounds of unstable meat passing
by just above me on a steep slope with an eighteen inch trail.
