You have a great trek! During your layover at Beaubien, you will definitely want to side hike to Trail Peak and see the wreckage of the B-24. Please remember that a bunch of guys died there, one of which was an Eagle scout, and treat the site as a memorial. I would take Trail Peak over the scheduled horseback ride. You will also want to view the sunrise from an awesome viewing spot from the top of Commanche Peak looking east. Don't miss it. Finally, at Aspen Springs, hike up through Hidden Valley to Window Rock. Another great spot. Hope this helps.
