Mustang Ride Prep Day Two, Trying out the Horses

Ride post top 3How and what you ride matters.  Preparation is the key to success.  All of this matters in every aspect of life, but on the trail, it can really matter matter.  From the feet, IMG_6443or hooves, as horses IMG_6581are built from the ground up to the cooking gear one plans on using, every aspect is looked at. 

The day started as usual with feeding, both the horses (first) then us.  Tack a gear, a light tripod, that due to a missing mounting plate had to be “rigged”.  It helps to have tools.  A pair of riding chaps is always nice to keep the pants clean, and bugs off.  Later, a horseback ride to familiarize with my mount and check the tack and gear I will be riding with.  All and all, a productive day.  Early tomorrow will set out. 

We will be riding Mak on first ride with Happyout from Sheep Creek Ranch, near Livermore, Colorado on the morning after IMG_6559Memorial Day, May 30th.   If you or anyone you know would like to to join us on the ride or wagon, or want more information, feel free to call Dave at (303) 517-39 one two.

Tomorrow I will have todays video on todays preparations.  I didn’t have time to upload it even though it is done.
