Reviews, Missouri
Missouri Hunting Season
We are so fortunate here in Missouri to have so many wonderful trails
available to us. Most people will find that there is a trail not more than
45 minutes from their home.
Missouri Department of Natural Resources, our Missouri Department of Conservation,
the US Army Corp of Engineers, the US Forest Service, and the National Park
Service all work very hard to preserve Missouri's outstanding natural landscapes and
cultural landmarks, and to provide outdoor recreational opportunities.
We also enjoy a number of wonderful Privately owned and maintained trails, in
addition to several Trail Systems such as the Ozark Trail Association and the
Mark Twain National Forest Trails.
All these trails provide area access as well as recreational and educational
opportunities.
Before attending any trail ride, make sure you check for specific
requirements, designated horse trails, designated parking, seasonal trail
closings, weather related trail closings, etc. Some changes, both temporary
and permanent, do occur.
Therefore, these lists might not be complete and some information could become outdated
and/or inaccurate. These lists are intended as only a guideline of where you
might be able to ride, or where you might be able to find some helpful
information in regards to horse trail rides.
You will need to check into the places you intend to visit ahead of time
for new information that might be available, especially if you are traveling
very far.
It is your responsibility to make
sure that you do not end up some place you shouldn't be!

The Story Behind "Happy Trails"
Every cowboy had a theme song. A song heard as the
dust settled and heroes drifted west towards the sinking sun. Some were
better than others, but few were as good as "Happy
Trails."
"Happy Trails" was written by Dale Evans
in 1950, while preparing for a radio show. Dale decided Roy needed a
theme song and since he penned all his autographs with "Trails of
Happiness" or "Happy Trails, Roy Rogers", the title came
easily.
Scribbling on an envelope, Dale wrote the famous
lyrics and taught the medley to Roy and the Sons of the Pioneers forty
minutes before show time.
What came across the radio that night gave
America's favorite singing cowboy a theme song and a nation a lifetime
of inspiration. |
