Training

We believe versatile horses develop over time by exposing them to the elements found on a working ranch.  Our horses learn how to cross rivers, navigate course terrain, muskeg, and dense bush.  Due to the natural location of the ranch they coexist with a herd of over 1000  head of elk, deer, cougar, grizzly and black bear.  When you add some of Western Canada’s most promising trainers into the mix of great minded, well built horses through our annual colt starting challenge and sale, you end up with horses that have a pleasurable disposition allowing the rider to have confidence whether riding indoors or on the trail.
