The opening of Reckoning has two men on horseback investigating a couple loan cabins. We posted in the local Highlands, NC Facebook group to see if there were any kind souls with horses. What we didn’t expect was the generosity of Whitewater Equestrian!
Keryn not only agreed to the shoot, but graciously gave us a tour of his operation. Not only do they have horses and beautiful Appalachian trails and streams, but a cabin originally built by none other than Daniel Boone! Keryn also took us to an ancient path cut deep into the forest floor that bore the feet of traveling Seminole Indians. They would disfigure trees to point others in the right direction—some of these tree trunks still remain!
We’re blown away by the kindness and generosity of the people in Western, NC! And a final bit of good news: Keryn has also agreed to be in the film! We’ll put up a post during production to show him in action. Until then, if you have the hankering for a good time on horseback, you now know where to go.
