Happy Trails is open for Winter Wonderland Sleigh Rides 7 days a week during the season. Yes! You can book a ride any day of the week, except the following winter holidays: Christmas Day, New Year's Day, and Male Bonding Day (also known as Super Bowl Sunday).

HAPPY TRAILS OLD FASHIONED HORSEDRAWN SLEIGHRIDES are held from December thru March in Easton, WA. For some people this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, for others it brings back memories of the only way there was to travel to school, to town, and to church, and for most it becomes an annual tradition - for families, for church groups, for company outings, birthday parties, Christmas caroling parties, mystery events, or romantic surprises. Any size group.

WHAT DOES IT COST?
Adults - $20.00 each
Children 10 yrs old and under $10.00 each
Toddlers 2 yrs and under are free.
Reservations are necessary and you will be asked to send a $50 deposit to P.O. Box 32, Easton, WA, 98925-0032. This will hold your date and time. Place the balance in an envelope with the name of the person who booked the ride written on the front and turn it in when you check in for your ride. HAPPY TRAILS provides fires, hot water, cold water, roasting forks, and gas stoves to heat soup, chili, or stew. There are warming tents with woodstoves for all to share, plus 4 pairs of snowshoes for free use. Trash cans provided.

WHAT TO BRING? Bring a blanket for each 2-3 people, keep blankets in the warm interior of your car, not in the cold trunk. Be sure your camera has film and fresh batteries...you’ll get some great shots for wonderful memories. Keep your food plans simple - it really isn’t a good time for a 5-course meal. Hot dogs, marshmallows, things to make s’mores, hot chocolate, soup, hot tea, and hot spiced cider are easy, popular foods to bring from home. For easy transport and handling, put soup, chili, or stew in a pot before you leave home; duct tape the lid on. When you reach camp, remove the tape and heat on a propane stove. Don't forget a ladle! Bring disposable cups, plates, bowls, and plastic forks and spoons. For a variation on traditional s'mores, try Cowboy S'mores made with a chocolate-covered graham cracker cookie instead of chocolate bars and graham crackers. Cowboy S'mores don't crumble as easily and kids love to make them for moms and dads! Buy a cookie large enough to accommodate a marshmallow - "Mother's Fudge and Graham" was voted best, but any brand will do. Bring along plastic and inflatable snow play devices for fun in the snow during the hour of playtime before the return half of the sleigh ride. Round saucer-type and inflatable devices give the best and safest ride; no wood or metal sleds please! We also have several inner tubes and other snowplay devices donated by previous customers for all to share. This hill has been mother-designed for the enjoyment of all. Dress in layers with windbreaker on the outside to be prepared for the varying weather conditions. Pack extra clothing to keep the children dry and at least 2 pairs of gloves. Check with us later if you lose anything. Pets are not allowed on sleighs or at camp. For their safety and comfort, leave them at home.

ARRIVAL TIME? It is a good idea to arrive 15-20 minutes before your reserved time so you can check in, pay the balance of your money, move your food and blankets from the car to the sleigh and add that last layer of clothing to keep you warm and dry. Remember!! Snow is wet.
