Being a confident lead horse/rear horse. Managing emotions on the trail and maintaining control. Navigating difficult terrain like Water crossings and uphill downhill trails. We plan to offer you the opportunity to encounter many different trail obstacles that we often run into on the trail. Plan to spend alot of time in the saddle having fun with a like minded group of riders supporting each other and getting our trail horses the best they can be. Just a few of the exciting things you and your horse will see during the week - bicycle, dogs, tractors/equipment, cars, interesting creatures, high line tying, group trail riding, riding alone, leading the group, riding in the back, taking a different trail and saddle bag preparation, rain coat training & more!
********NEWLY ADDED for the weekend- Trustworthy Trail Horse Challenge Course******* Saturday at 2:00 pm
Riders will attack the course in teams (2 or 3 riders) and as you travel along you will encounter challenges to try along the way. Now these are gonna be a little more than just trail obstacles.
These are gonna be fun challenges for a Trustworthy Trail Horse.
This is NOT a Race so don't fret. Riders will draw for teams so dont worry that you do not have a partner. We will have one for you. The competition will be between you and the course.
You may have to drag something , find a treasure, save a lost cowboy and much more.....lol you just never know what the challenge will be until you find it on the trail as you ride along.
There will be instructions/directions posted for you to follow to accomplish each challenge located at the challenge. If it takes too long you can select the option for the easy way out and continue thru the course. Taking the easy way out has no shame it just gives you something to work on later.
Expect to have a great time , challenge your horse and yourself and have a unique equine trail riding experience.
We plan to offer you the opportunity to encounter many different trail obstacles that we often run into on the trail.
