Safety Precautions:
The ultimate authority in the backcountry is your guide. He is responsible for your safety and your comfort. Pay attention to his directions. An experienced and knowledgeable guide will adhere to the following safety rules:
 

• Ride with awareness. Be aware of potential problems.
• Warn riders behind you if you become aware of a hazard.
• Keep two horse distances apart to having one horse kick another and creating problems.
• Go the speed of the least experienced horse or the most inexperienced rider.
• Walk up and down steep hills.
• Know the local wildlife and be aware of their potential presence at any time.
• Avoid riding along roads if possible.
• Go the same speed. Don’t trot or gallop past someone going a slower pace. Follow the pace set by your lead rider.
• Ride well-known trails when the light is poor such as nightfall or very early morning.
• Remember that you are on a horse and all animals should be treated with respect. Do not create any hazards for yourself or your mount by “playing around”.
