It will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the beginning of the Back Country Horsemen organization. There are numerous committees that need help in making arrangements, please contact the Chairman: Andy Breland to volunteer and help make this the best. |
Our Purpose is to perpetuate enjoyable common sense use of horses in the back country; assist government agencies in maintenance and management of the resource; and educate, encourage and solicit active public participation in wise and sustaining use of horses and use by people commensurate with our heritage and the back country resource. | ||
| We do this through our Projects by donating packing support, clearing trails, and providing other resources to partners (Forest Service, BMWF, MCC, Fish&Wildlife, Forestry Expo) who are actively maintaining Wilderness Resources in the Bob Marshall, Great Bear, Scapegoat and Mission Mountain Wilderness areas. See our 2011 Calendar for a list of all our projects, events and meetings. | ||||

Our Members are Trained in defensive horsemanship, horse and mule packing, first aid, Leave No Trace and trail etiquette to provide them the tools to enable them to donate their time and labor to accomplish the Projects. |
