Out of the deep freeze and into the brink!  Welcome to spring - Montana-style.  We're happily keeping our heads above water after bringing  the herd home safely during a FANTASTIC Horse Drive.  Thanks to all of you who helped.  For those who missed it, be sure to check out our escapades with "Randy the Randy Shetland", the "Puked on Pilot", and more great stories, blogs, and photos about the Drive from Kail and Crew (which should really be the name of his band or new line of hail-resistant casual camp gear).  Never a dull moment here.   

We've got some new and exciting things going on this month and we would like to share them with you.  The Horse Course is open, Kail is conducting a UHC Clinic, Val and Steph are back for a Photo Expedition, and we're gearing up for our first Heroes and Horses Ranch and Pack Week. Plus, our stellar lineup of sale horses is in and ready to be viewed - sans mud...finally.

Come join us on our next adventure.

Trail Challenge Clinic with Kail Mantle - June 18th

Trail Challenge Competitions - July 16,  August 20, September 10  

"Having the chance to ride a course where you encounter almost every obstacle you would find on any ride is a great training experience for any horse and rider.  I was able to test myself and also my horse.  We both developed an increased level of confidence that will be a benefit for whatever type of riding we do."  Doreen L., Ennis, MT

Join Kail Mantle on June 18th for a one-day Trail Challenge Clinic, during which he'll coach you and your horse through the UHC trail obstacles and provide you with an understanding of the horsemanship necessary to accomplish your riding goals and the ability to use these skills on the trail, in competition, and in every type of riding you do. You'll  leave a better rider, with increased confidance and a better communication with your horse...and you'll have fun doing it!

Open June 4th for regular weekend use.
