Preparing for the Trail/
Trail Obstacle
Prepare your horse for the trail by building their confidence in you and your confidence in them! Address challenges such as controlling the life and energy of your horse, getting your horse to wait, cross water, navigate bridges, be comfortable in trees and around bushes, tarps, slickers, zipper/velcro, saddle bags, water bottles, and hobbles. Bring your list. We will help you find the tools to help support your horse on the trail! Most of our time will be spent in the arena “preparing” for the trail with a short ride out for those that feel ready at the end of the day.
Clinics limited to 10 riders.
Clinic format will vary depending on horses, riders, and hosts.

This clinics focus is to help prepare you and your horse with confidence building horsemanship skills and trail obstacles, in the arena and out on the trail. Barn/herd sour, jigging, getting your horse to wait for mounting, dismounting, opening, and shutting gates, water crossings, bridges, bushes (and the "monsters” that hide in them!), tarps, slickers, zipper/Velcro, saddle bags, water bottles, hobbling, are a few of the things we can work on.
Make a list, specific to you and your horse, and we will be glad to work on that. We will spend in the arena working on our horsemanship skills before we ride out on the trails. Riders and horses of all levels are encouraged to attend.
