Watch a saddle fitting session With Terry Sakai and Yukari (in training) from Peter Horobin Saddlery, measuring up Shalico.

10km horse trail ride with friends

Day 6 of having covid, nothing better for it than going on a 10 km ride to blow out the cobwebs. We also decided to go and check out the flooded track to see if there is a way through yet.
The best ride yet, water crossings, loping, jumping and then teaching the stop.

Join Katherine and I on a 6km ride around the property. Long stretches of trotting and loping, water crossings and over some log jumps. Finishing off in the arena for some lope circles and starting work on our stops.

    No hate but you need to cut the grass there will be snakes and I don’t want anyone or horses to get bit❤

    • @thehorselife24
      @thehorselife24 Před 12 dny

      Thanks for your concern. But as I can't predict future rainfall, the grass will get cut once the horses have eaten as much as they want without over grazing. Every bit of ground cover counts to protect the soil. It is rare for adult horses to get bitten by snake cos the snakes feel the vibrations and will go the other way. On the other hand, foals get bitten more often because they are curious.

      I appreciate your observations. But, if you go back and have a look at our previous videos you will see how fat he was when I purchased him. My vet said he was on the verge of founder. That was in late February. He was started in light work and has worked up to about 15 km a week of hill work plus arena work. His breeding is Lusitano x gypsy cob so he has a heavy build, he's not an overweight paint horse 😆 Did you read in the video how we have both been increasing our fitness to be able to get to this point? Apart from some trotting and warming up, this was the total amount of loping for this session. His first trail ride: czcams.com/video/t8MVcXTz9gk/video.html

    This is an excellent video. Thank you. But I have a related question. Here it is. I have been doing this on my land for about 50 years and have a fairly mature dense working system of about 25 acres of pasture. I have posted writings about it and MANY videos for the last 12 years at least. I have traveled physically to the Alps and to Portugal for the purpose of studying it and posted about those trips, first having seen it in Peru and Senegal. I have traveled endlessly on line studying whatever I could find about acequias, levadas, bisses, Suonen, Andenes, socalcos, terraced landscapes -- all part of contoured farming and gardening. WHY? do my posts have so few views when a fine one like this one, within a month has 6.3 K views? I am NOT jealous, but I wonder why it is SOOO difficult to get the word out. See, for example one of my most watched videos. czcams.com/video/4P60vrSfrGs/video.html If there is ANY way to promote this technique you would be doing Gaia a great favor to share it.

    • @thehorselife24
      @thehorselife24 Před 4 měsíci

      I am just as surprised as you. Maybe it's in the titles. Most of my other videos have less than 100 views. I tried hard during our drought to push this stuff in preparation for when the drought broke but there wasn't much interest. All we can do is keep trying. BTW did you subscribe? I'll share the love.

    Up here in America, we've been looking into various methods of rehydrating the land and controlling erosion. I live in Western Washington, which like Eastern Victoria down there is a rather wet environment, but we still use those rocks-in-cages as leaky weirs to help slow water and prevent erosion during flood events. Oddly enough, it doesn't have to be a tall rock barrier! There's a video on small rock "dams" in a watershed called Turkey Creek which made a huge difference between it and its neighboring watershed. There were simply a *lot* of these little check-dams set on Turkey Creek by the landowners, most of them only a couple rocks high at best. The results were significant enough that the USGS (Gelogical Survey) asked if they could do several studies on the differences, and came up with that video, which you can look at here: czcams.com/video/c2tYI7jUdU0/video.htmlsi=x0XSriV0qZltJF1_

  • @Wes61
    @Wes61 Před 4 měsíci

    All of the vegetation and native plants have been cleared. This causes the soil to release and become soft and loose as water flows quickly over. Combinations of stone and natural vegetation should remedy the issue completely and indefinitely.

    4:20 could be fixed simply by stopping actively destroying the area with overgrazing.

    Media Luna, One Rock Dams, and Rock Run-Downs. We've seen a lot of similar erosion in the Western States of the US, and found that using locally-sourced material, like the abundant rock, is very effective if you apply it correctly.
