Camps in Langley, Canada

If you use a rope halter with lead rope and no swivel you can buy these to use instead of a prusset rope https://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=2 c3 f74 cc-c242-4 f6 f-a247-3 e30 a15 f0366&sfb=1&itemguid=abd4 eb77-fe21-4078-8 b9 c-72 d58 bf22408&utm_content=42080&ccd=IFH003&mr:trackingCode=34D0D19F-E7BF-E511-80FA-005056942F93&mr:referralID=NA&mr:device=c&mr:adType=plaonline&mr:ad=43741505443&mr:keyword=&mr:match=&mr:tid=pla-84505766683&mr:ploc=9027218&mr:iloc=9004065&mr:store=&mr:filter=84505766683&gclid=Cj0KEQiA5 oy1BRDQh6Wd572 hsfkBEiQAfdTPCrbRmPWoSyQEzfjrKP8 z-L5JeM0SofT97YCTliOBDNEaApJY8P8HAQ

Poor Rachel Cook. She asked a simple question of how to teather horses overnight and all of the "l've gotta better answer than you" elves came out of the woods. This isn't s right or wrong question. My opinion is, if you want to vent, stick with politics. Every horse person knows there are more than two ways to skin a cat, so pick your poison. Sorry, Rachel.

Like everything else, make sure you practice in a corral before taking the horse out overnight. There are lots of hobbles. My preference for overnight is a side hobble (front to back) rather than side to side. Hobbles can be made from soft nylon rope. Clinton Anderson sells them online. (clintonanderson.com or downunderhorsemanship.com.) I wouldn't worry about your horse laying down, likelihood is that being in new surroundings, he/she wouldn't lay down anyway. A second method, is to stake the horse. Finally, I suggest belling the horse, just in case he/she wanders off in the night, you'll have an easier time finding him/her in the morning.

Here is the video to stake out. they call it picket line but when I hear of picket liine I think calvary and a rope line 36-48" off the ground. on this video they use a chain and tie to front foot. I prefer using back foot and you will not need chain because they seldom step on rope: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuxDLioO1GA

hobble part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0 bm_SA2 zVw

hobble part 3: Remember hobbling is a prerequisite to staking out on a rope to graze overnight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrnksGwn4 jo

A high line at night is the best, you can see details on www.bchcalifornia.org or contact a Backcountry Horsemen group in your area and connect with education chair person. Have a great and safe adventure

Highline but your horse should be trained at home before camping https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T20BArPwsZc

Rebecca Lynn Jurkovsky Crawford probably has some ideas in Utah and adjoining mountain states. Look her up.

Continental Divide is not far from us either

Utah. Near Salt Lake City. 20 mins off the I15. Timponooke campground has horse corrals and beautiful trails through the mountains. Run by www.recreation.com. Beautiful part of Utah

Haycreek Ranch in Nemo SD is a nice place with a lot of riding. You can ride alone or join the owner, Doug. If you haven't been to Custer State Park, there is a horse camp called French Creek. You need to make reservations asap if you decide to go there, it is hard to get a space.

Try The Open Trail Project.

Lost Cowboy Ranch in Northern Scotsdale near Rio Verde. It's a horse motel with endless riding opportunities.

If you are going through New Mexico, my husband and I love Silver City. We don't usually stay at RV parks or horse camps or anywhere else that you have to pay to camp. We like the BLMs and National Forest. Just before entering the city limit of Silver City is the Continental Divide trail head where you can camp. The Continental Divide trail goes for miles. There are also several other trails to explore there too. The trail head has quite a few camping sites that are nice. There are also a couple of camping areas just before you get to the Continental Divide trail head, as you're traveling east. It's national forest and hooks up to the Continental Divide trail. There is a lot of camping in Colorado. We live in Pagosa Springs during the summer and there's a great place here that has a natural hot springs in the river that is free to access. In Wyoming there is the Medicine Bow National Forest, on Happy Jack Road between Cheyenne and Laramie.

Jennifer Harvey lives outside Sandpoint.

Hi Debbie the first time we headed down to Arizona from Canada we had no plans but we managed. Not sure if you could get into Kings Stable in Apache Junction but that would work for you. Trails in every direction close to town. Couple of great restaurants in riding distance.

Hi Dianne the Rodeo grounds out by the airport in Kanab could work. Also if you head out of Kanab towards Page AZ right in the Paria Canyon area is a ranch called Paria Canyon Guest Ranch and it has horse camping. The riding is like no other. You can ride from there down the Paria river to all kinds of Slot canyons. Here is just on of my many blogs on the area http://campingandhorses.blogspot.ca/2014/04/southern-utah.html

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1392547010965118/ See the FILES tab on this page for some camping info. Trail directions are there also.

Hi Kristen Mochrie we are only 40 minutes from you. There are some great places all around BC. Down the street from us is Hidden Valley Rustic Horse camp. They are between Merritt and Kamloops on the same road as us Mamitt Lake road or Hwy97C some call it.

I recently purchased "Arizona Horse Camping" from http://www.campingandhorses.com by Kelly Brook Allen. Awesome book. Detailed info on camping and riding throughout Arizona and includes a reference guide to farriers, feed supplies, vets etc in each area of Arizona. I highly recommend the book. If you check out the website, be sure you find this particular author and book as the website has other camping info books...good luck and have fun!!!

Check out my blogs on riding in Utah. If you are only going for 2 weeks you will not see much Kate. My favourite riding in AZ is in the Superstition Mountains. You can dry camp at Goldfield Ghost Town just before the Lost dutchman park in Apache Junction. Here is a link to one of my Blogs http://campingandhorses.blogspot.ca/2014/12/goldfield-in-apache-junction.html

As far as Utah you may want to camp at Para Canyon Guest Ranch http://campingandhorses.blogspot.ca/2014/04/paria-canyon-guest-ranch-and-campground.html

Here is another ride from Para Canyon guest ranch http://campingandhorses.blogspot.ca/2014/04/4-canyons-one-ride-from-paria-canyon.html

We drove the Burr Trail years ago in a suburban and there were some really dicey switchbacks that we barely got around. The NPS recommends NO recreational vehicles on it. http://www.nps.gov/glca/planyourvisit/driving-the-burr-trail.htm

FYI Judy Harrison Pass

https://www.facebook.com/groups/southernutahtrailriders/ see the pinned post for trail directions and resources

The Burr Trail (as I remember from 4 years ago, driving a VW Jett's). Seems like a good gravel road - until you get to the "wash" just before Glen Canyon hookup. ( 5 miles from the east end?). There is a mile by mile directory on the National Park Service website. Nps.gov Absolutely gorgeous road - we will try to enter from Boulder, UT next year and work our way along the 65 miles until it gets dicey. With a horse trailer, so let us know how it goes!

Ditto Skillman !

If you do ever decide to head south, Montana de Oro is the bomb. There is a poker ride coming up in October and the camping rates are super cheap for those dates. Go to Coast Mounted Assistance Montana de Oro group for more information.

I second Cuneo Creek!

Jack Brooks horse camp near laHonda above half moon bay!

Skillman Horse Camp on HWY20 just 18 outside of Nevada City in the Tahoe Forest. Horse corrals in some of the campsites. Water available for the horses and the trails are great.

Lundbom Lake just got a make over 28 new corrals https://www.facebook.com/lundbomlake?fref=ts

A few years ago BCHBC with support from Horse Council & EQ Trails Association set up corrals at the Larch Hills in Salmon Arm, and this year the Nordic Society with funding from EQ Trails will be graveling the parking area and are encouraging horse camping. There is a chalet to use and a caretaker on site who is a horse person. Miles of Trails that the Nordic Society has maintained, situated between Salmon Arm and Mara Lake. Not sure of the price as of yet.

Skimikin Forestry campsite is set up for horses, see the facebook page. Lots of trails, managed by EQ Trails Association

Lundbom Lake near Merritt is great. New corrals and lots of trails. Kane Lake has trails but not much for amenities.

Hideaway Horse Camp near Oliver .... more southern than central but great hosts and beautiful area to ride

Definitely come North! Pro-Formance Goalie School is fantastic and also recently named Top Hockey School in BC by Hockey Now! (www.progoal.com). Sign up for one of their Fraser Valley camps with Proali Goalie and Jordan Sigalet, camp at Fort Langley (http://www.fortcamping.com) and you will have a world of adventure at your doorstep in our beautiful Province! Not to mention, with the strong US dollar, you will be able to stretch your vacation and hockey dollars even further!

The Goalie Club does a great job. They are based in Minnesota but do a camp in Montana or Wyoming every year. Des is the owner and does a great job with all levels. Mite thru juniors/college level. He is the goalie coach for Shattuck St. Mary's in Faribault MN

Broken Arrow in SD is a nice place to stay. Wow, sounds like a great trip!! Check the DNR website for state parks. Get The Trail Rider magazine for great I information. Happy Trails!

Also Turkey Creek in Nebraska turkeycreekne.com

Ft Robinsn Crawford, NE http://www.stateparks.com/fort_robinson_state_park_in_nebraska.html

Try Hay Creek in SD - it is near Deadwood.

I do not believe there are any camping area for horses in the Langley area. Merritt is 2 1/2 hour drive and there are some super places to camp. Lundbom Lake has 28 new corrals and lovely campsite on the lake with also great fishing and quadding. Up past Merritt towards Logan Lake is the camp site Hidden Valley Rustic Horse camp were you can rent cabins that sleep up to 6 people. Great trails and corrals for your horses. The even have hot showers. http://www.hiddenvalleyhorsecamp.com

More info on horse camping in BC http://www.campingandhorses.com/travel_b_c_.htm

Groom Creek up by Prescott is a nice place to camp, Tombstone is nice, if you want to dry camp there's lots of places you can go.

Here are a few recommendations. Check out all my blogs on these areas. http://campingandhorses.blogspot.ca/2014/12/goldfield-in-apache-junction.html
