These trails are often extensively used by people utilizing all allowed modes of travel. Yes, intensive use by horses can tear up the trail, as can use by other modes of travel. However, these rough trails are considered part of the experience. There are often nearby alternatives for those looking for a smoother/easier walking experience. Mike
