'Proper Trail Riding Etiquette'

Proper Trail Riding Etiquette

By Jessica at 10/03/08 22:04

I am new to the large organized trail rides and was not sure of proper etiquette before my first ride. I made sure to stay a little ways behind the horse in front of me and did not gallop or even really trot to catch up to prevent spooking leading horses. I just wonder if there are other rules I should be aware of?

And as far as what to bring, I just kind of winged it. I made sure I had water and a small first aid kit in my saddle bags. I also packed some food and lead ropes to tie my horse when we stopped. Other than that I was not sure what to bring. I need to find someone who frequently goes on rides to show me the ropes.

No trackbacks.
