Keep the equestrian trails open and friendly. Horse manure is just grass and yes I always take time to kick it off the trail. A good excuse to get off and stretch.

Please do not classify horses as pets! Do not require bag and removal of horse poop. Logically, equestrians cannot carry around a 20 lb bag of poop for miles til back at trailheads! Horse poop will dry up and flake away, it is not sticky & smelly like dog poop... because horses don't eat meat.

Horses are NOT pets, but livestock,don't change their classification without a full and public hearing process.

I hope that people who love going on trail rides in nature will not lose the opportunity to do this in Jefferson county. Please look at the way Robin Hill County Park in Clallam county is able to maintain a multiuse trail system that allows for both hikers and equestrian use. Contact the Friends of Robin Hill group for more history of the park's evolution or contact me if interested in ideas about mitigating safety concerns re combined hikers and pedestrian use.

Horse manure poses NO threat on the trail. It decomposes quickly and no odors. Go after the people who dump their garbage on the trails .

The horses community has always at the forefront in building and maintaining trails and parks. Yet we seem to be punished at every turn.

Please keep Jefferson county the wonderful horse-friendly commuity it is. Horses are livestock. People need to be better educated about the differences between horses and pets. And poo on trails will break down, it's plant-based, not meat, so if people are comparing it to dog poop - don't.

The trails were built for everyone. It sounds like someone is stiring the pot . Alot of this happening in PT . Cancel this cancel that to make a small percentage of people or person (s) feel like they are speaking for all. This is an equestrian town and should stay the way it has always been . Being on the trails myself, I have rarely ( very) seen anything left behind by the riders . As for the dogs , they are all very well trained . I cant say that for others on the trail. Leave them be !

Horse manure like all the other wild animals isn’t a problem, it’s the people who can’t just walk around it or kick it off the trail if it somehow offends you, quit trying to make life miserable for all people, just irritating to me that this is even being considered a problem!

Horses are used for transportation and should not be classified as pets. They are livestock. Multi use trails should include equestrians.
