Horse Trail Etiquette Part 1

I was asked multiple times for this video and here is part 1. I tried to present trail ride "rules" in a positive way. I'm looking forward to viewers' comments and making a second video based on your feedback.
Hi, I’m Iowatrailrider, Beth Boyle. I make the tooled leather cantle bags, bottle bags, horn bags, mohair pulling collars and cinches in my trail ride videos and sell them through my tiny company, Great Oak Leather LLC. Find it on Facebook and at www.greatoakleather.com. Check the website for Iowatrailrider merchandise too!
I have published videos that show horse camps and trails in AZ, SD, OH, VA, TN, AR, OK and more states. We’ve been blessed with opportunities to ride that might help others find their next new favorite ride. Some of the videos are horse camp tours, some are trails and a few are fun goofy stuff. This link will take you to my channel on TH-cam. TH-cam’s algorithm needs to see new viewers subscribe, like 👍 and watch until the end of the video to suggest my videos to more people so please consider subscribing, liking and watching to the end. / @iowatrailrider

I know of many who should listen to your great advice. Your compatibility with your fellow riders is important. I'm selective nowadays. Thank you!

I really love riding with people who are out to have a fun and a pleasant ride. Even when they have a green horse that is behaving like a squirrel, they are calm and still smiling as they work through what they need to...they take things in stride and are not putting down other riders and horses who might be struggling.

Great video & really good tips. I like it when a rider will check with everyone if it’s ok to have a trot or canter along here, in case anyone that doesn’t want to go faster has someone to stay with them or have everyone continue to walk. People can be nervous, on a nervous horse or a green/young horse.
Video idea: I’d love to see a video or 2 on your horses, your sisters horses/friends horses. Their name/breed/backgrounds/type of riding or work that they’ve done etc….id love to know all about the horses! Thank you for your videos, I love them!

[@Iowatrailrider]

Thank you for the ideas. Have you watched my Sonitalena Doc videos? I did a series on my new horse, Doc. Hmmmm...maybe I'll make videos for the other gelding too....

Thank you for this video! I almost always ride by myself with my saddle horse and one pack horse. I would like to know trail manners so I don't annoy others in a group! Packing is so fun and amazing but I'm never with more than one other person usually. Anyway, thank you!

[@Iowatrailrider]

You are most welcome!

Really good tips and solid trail etiquette advice! We practice during the riding season to space ourselves out, weave our horses through the others and trade places all the while maintaining our space from each other so that our horses will be comfortable in any position! My horse starts out wanting to be in front but he will go where I put him but then after 10 to 20 minutes will not be concerned wherever he is in the group. I really appreciate this video Beth. All great reminders! We use Maprika, any better apps out there you would suggest? Thanks in advance! 🤠🐴 Yes a good mapper is key!! It is a huge responsibility!

Thank you, Laurie. I really like Garmin's Earthmate app. It can be used with or without the Garmin device. We used Rambler in Virginia and Tennessee. It was helpful but a bit slow to update sometimes.
