Safety

- Always tie horses with a quick-release knot. If you don't know how, ask the instructor.
- Always ask the instructor to check the bridle and girth before mounting.
- Never ride on any trail alone.
- Do not ride or lead horses on the road.
- Do not hand-feed treats to the horses. If you wish to bring treats, please ask the instructor for assistance.
