About this listen
Spring is here, which means mud season is in full swing! One minute, you’re cruising down the trail, the next—your horse is knee-deep in muck, and you’re questioning all your life choices. With so many RTR members asking about the best trails and how to handle the mud, this episode is here to help!
In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ How to pick the right trails to avoid turning your ride into a slip-and-slide.
✅ Essential gear and hoof care to keep both you and your horse safe.
✅ Riding techniques for navigating mud without injuries.
✅ Trail etiquette and preservation—because we all want to ride trails that stay in good shape!
✅ Volunteer opportunities to give back to the parks and trails we love.
So, grab your waterproof boots, your best balance, and a sense of humor—because mud happens!
