Carron Miller: Paddling Amongst Wild Horses

STORY:

First time for Zina!

I finally got to take my pal Zina out on the Salt River, just outside of Phoenix, to witness the beautiful wild horses on a SUP. It was a hot but gorgeous day and the horses were out in full force. You see, we can paddle year-round here in Phoenix, but the river season will end soon as the flow will be lowered to a trickle over the winter months. Sharing the river with these majestic creatures is such a treat and watching them run free in their natural habitat never gets old.

PRO TIPS:

• Always wear your PFD
• Keep a safe distance from the horses (50 ft. minimum)
• Wear sunscreen and bring water
