Experienced riders camp - 5 hours a day 15-20 miles distance a day
This is quite a unique experience not widely available, probably because participants on these trips really need to be in better than average physical condition.
The number of riders per trip is limited to 8, which makes for a more personal experience and is the reason they can offer you a safe, active ride across the wide-open spaces
Blue Sky Sage Horseback Adventures offer a programme for more experienced riders. The rides are safe and controlled, yet physically active. Where practical, riders ride abreast at extended gaits such as the lope - when and where appropriate.
The wide and open, unfenced country of far western Wyoming, with 100-mile vistas and active riding are just some of the features of a Blue Sky Sage Horseback Adventure. Every week is a very hands-on experience of free-spirited horsemanship on the open range, with no fences and no "nose to tail" trail riding.
You will ride savvy Horses, have a lot of fun and, no one ever leaves thinking they haven't had enough time in the saddle! Blue Sky Sage Horseback Adventures welcome riders who are currently riding or have done some riding in the past and would be generally considered intermediate to experienced in skill level in English or Western (you will ride Cowboy-style western exclusively, on Quarter Horses and Quarter mixes)
These rides are horsemanship vacations, with the focus on all aspects of horses and riding the open range, for physically fit, active horse enthusiasts. Please understand that these are active rides that require that you be physically fit, not overweight for your body shape/age/gender, have no severe neck, back, knee or other severe pain issues, and have good body strength and control, with a certain level of stamina, though you certainly don't have to be in Olympic athlete condition. Generally, women should weigh no more than 150 pounds (10.5 stone) if you are 5'5" or less in height, relative to your overall physical condition, stamina, body type, etc. Taller women have a little bit more leeway, but only related to proportions of your body type, up to about 175 pounds. Men should not be over 175 pounds (12.5 stone) if you are 5'7" or less in height and no more than 230 pounds (16.4 stone) if you are taller, again in relation to your overall physical fitness level and body proportions.
You will live out on the trail in a full-amenity, vehicle-supported, remote wilderness-style camp. Sleep out under the stars or in a roomy, weather-proof canvas tent. A thick foam pad under your bedroll, plus the pure Wyoming air, promises you a good nights' sleep. Wash off the trail dust at the end of the days' ride in a hot shower or take a refreshing dip in the cool waters of the river just a step away from your tent door. At nightfall, take your favourite beverage and join the crew around the campfire.
