FoCM's May 2nd meeting had a visit from Shawn Mott and Susan Pennell of Chaparral Ranch who will be operating the Corral concession at Camp Mather this summer.

Shawn said that they plan to bring about 30 horses and ponies (yea ponies!) up to Camp with an anticipated crew of about seven.

​A big welcome to the Chaparral Ranch folks, and we look forward to meeting them all up and around Camp.

can you provide for three horses from Hetch Hetchy reservoir to the top of Morain Ridge, one way only? If you are unable to provide this service, can you recommend a packer that could? thank you, we have enjoyed your services in the past.

Brook, would love to let the horses out of the barn for you, but we're not in charge of that. You need to talk with the folks at Chaparral Ranch at http://www.chaparralcorporation.com and ask them, as they handle the horses for Camp Mather. Hope it works out for you.
