Blaze West Trails

What an adventure !! We were lucky enough to have Rhonda Sawchuk Jacqueline BarryEmily ShippyJackie Shippy Katrina Shippy join us for this epic trip. After 10 days, we travelled over 200 kms on horseback in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Family friends flew in by helicoptor for a coffee and a nice visit around the campfire. Friendships and memories that will last a lifetime, accompanied by great weather made this a trip a truly unforgettable experience

Our second trip of the summer was a group of 6 . We saddled up 12 horses and hit the trails spending 10 days touring the backcountry. We managed to meet up with a grizzly on the trail , seen a huge bull elk and lots of deer. Thanks for the great trip ladies . Tyler William White

We’re a little behind with posting as we’ve been putting on lots of miles in the saddle to start our summer. This trip is special to me as my dad and I spent 10 days in the backcountry cleaning trail and prepping camps for this summers trips. After three days of riding we made it into teardrop camp which he hadn’t been to in over 20 years. We had some great laughs and shared stories along the way. The weather was scorching hot so we took advantage of all the cold mountain creeks. Thanks again for all the help and support along the way dad.

Lightly started bought as a kids horse but the kids don’t like him

With fall in the air and winter around the corner , we’re taking a few minutes to reflect on our summer 2020 season. So much time and resources go into a successful season and we wouldn’t be able to do it alone . It was a busy year building camps, cutting trails, and working horses. We’re lucky enough to have some amazing family and friends that come out to lend a helping hand. Tyler William White Emily Shippy Brian Hatala. Cody Graham Sr.
