Trail Challenge
Part of our horsie weekend involved a trail challenge that Nicole and Candi participated in. I didn't because my horse is fabulous out on a "real" trail, but is a bit of a chicken about the scary fake obstacles people put together for trail classes.
Most the horses were fine with walking through the "brush."
Very few horses were willing to walk through the water which was a tarp in a shallow pit with water in it. Horses have terrible depth perception, so this looked suspicious to them. Jasper politely refused! Nicole came away with third place for her age group.
The rope gate is harder than it looks.
This was just a bunch of loose straw with some pop cans scattered in it, but many horses were a little suspicious. A few horses snagged a bite on their way through! Funny how it can be scary and tasty all at once!
