This is an area where a lot of people come to show and train driving horses. The wooden structures (like the one right off Hwy 51 that looks like a couple of forts) are obstacles for driving events. Drivers are given a certain path to take between all of the structures, and are timed through the course. Throughout this area are trails maintained by the Oklahoma Harness Horse Association for their events. This cache is along one such trail. Enjoy! To find the cache, answer the following questions. . . . . N 36 AB.CDE, W 097 FG.HIJ
