Worth taking horses in the backcountry?
Heading to Colorado next September for archery elk season. Been thinking of getting a couple horses and working with them so they are ready by then. I'm from Missouri and would have to trailer them out. Checked into renting horses but the feed requirements from the renter are such that I wouldn't have room for any gear because I'd have to haul so much horse feed. You guys think its worth it taking your own horses? Can they find enough pickins' in the early season to last them a full week? Your opinions would be great.
