The Flying Moose is a listing on horsemotel.com. Horsemotel.com is one of the resources I use when trying to locate layovers or places to stay on my way to my final destination. This property is fairly new. Tammy and Alex are still in the process of building their home and racing against time, trying to get a roof on before the snow starts.
Join us as we travel across the United States with our two Tennessee Walkers, Lennox & Mercutio. We are living full-time in our 35' SMC living quarters trailer. Lots of pictures and a few stories here and there. All of our horses have been named from characters from Shakespeare plays. Lennox is the name of a general in Macbeth. Mercutio is Romeo's best friend. Oberon is king of the fairies in MidSummer's Night Dream. Laertes is Ophelia's brother in Hamlet.

The Flying Moose - Kila, Montana
Our first challenge was getting our rig into their property. We ended up backing in so we would be faced the correct way when we leave. Tammy had said that we would have no problems with our LQ and I can only say I appreciate her optimism and faith in Ari's ability to back up a trailer. I would not recommend LQs over 30'. We have water and electricity for the trailer, so we are happy.
Our horses are in a large corral.
One section of the corral is using logs, which is quaint, but they need to add one more higher rail. If Mercutio was so inclined, he could just jump out to get to the grass he wants to eat.
I looked out the window this morning to see a doe casually walking by looking for something to eat.
We rode to Lake Rogers from the property. There are no trails to speak of. We basically rode on the road and bushwacked through some woods to get to the lake.
The horses did fine with the water. Lennox even splashed a bit.
We are back to clear (non-smoky) skies.
These are the woods we bushwacked through.
Tomorrow we head to another horse motel near Glacier Park outside of Whitefish, MT.
