I'm a horse-crazy midlife adult
Since learning to pack in 2010, I've ridden over 4,000 km through western Canada's wilderness.
Check out these trips for inspiration: nine in 2010 - 2012, six in 2013 - 2015, seven in 2016 - 2017, and more to come.
I've been horse-addicted most of my life, catching the bug at 9 and getting paid to ride by 12. I've been fortunate to:
+ achieve Canadian Pony Club ‘A’ level
+ fox-hunt, three-day event and ride point-to-point horses in England
+ condition polo ponies
+ wrangle at one of western Canada's premier hunting outfitters
+ start and gallop thoroughbreds
+ groom for a member of the Canadian 3-Day Eventing Team at the first World Equestrian Games
+ compete at intermediate level Three-Day Events (aka CCI** Horse Trials), including a Pan-American Games qualifier and the North American Young Riders Championships
+ try fun horse sports like cattle sorting, mounted archery and ski-jouring.
Since 1999, I've been buying, training and selling diamonds-in-the-rough.
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. Muriel Strode
