How many miles/day?

[BuckSmasher]

How many miles do y'all ride and pack your horses per day in the mountains? Longest we have done so far is 14 miles. Horses were definitely not 'fresh' anymore but right back to normal the next morning. Could we have went another 10?

I know horse health and fitness plays a big part. Healthy middle aged horses that get ridden quite a bit during the summer.

Totally dependant on the condition of your horses. I regularly do 16-20 mile days with my string, 100 mile weeks are not uncommon.
