- Hey Horse Lovers! WOW you are in for an INTERESTING day here at Free Spirit Farm. WE got SLAMMED with some massive snow here in Michigan and today we get to ride and have fun playing with the horses in the snow. The snow looked absolutely gorgeous. My student and I started off the day with a trail ride in the fluffy white snow. We decided to take Arlo and Olaf out. We were having the best ride eve THEN something went terribly wrong. It was a very scary experience. Watch to see what happens!!!!!! As always Enjoy the ride! -Shae

It’s was so much fun!!! Shae gives me al lot of really cool opportunities that has made me a better rider through out the years!!!!! Shae is the absolute best trainer and I couldn’t ask for anything more❤❤❤🦄
You were amazing Piper!!! Thanks for being such a trooper. It was such a fun day. ❤️
I am glad all four of you are alright.
I am so glad that you are ok! How do y’all not get lost in the trails? You never stop learning
Glad you are okay
Things happen and you have a good teacher. Piper you kept a level head to keep yourself safe too and right back on. It was a beautiful day and a memory to write down in your diary. If we didn’t have these moments our books would be empty! ⛄️💕❄️ PS I’ve had a few moments in my lifetime too 😂picking snow out of my pants🤭
😊 I'm 70 and no longer able to ride, but I must say this is the best video where I could be you in the saddle and enjoy this wonderful ride. My horse, Apache, had to be the lead horse always and riding in the snow my favorite. Thank you
Naughty little Olaf! The snow zoomies got to him and he just had to go go go back to the barn. :D Piper though! What a star! And I'm obsessed with Arlo's mane! I'm a sucker for tricolor manes and tails. AND I have to say seeing Prince C. running in the field in this video and in your barn day video is truly amazing. The difference between the way he moved in his auction video and now is mindblowing. Your love, devotion and care let that naturally stunningly gorgeous trot/canter shine.
Thank you! ❤️
Shae really knows what she's doing, bringing out the best in rehab of Prince Charming. What a change, you're right! I remember those frozen blueberry packs on his hindquarter.
Olaf is a good unicorn he just had a mind of his own
So glad no one got hurt,. Beautiful scenery, loved seeing Arlo's beautiful mane. Fresh snow on a cloudy day was majestic. Good job Piper. Maybe in merch....you could have a line of headbands 😍😍😍😍😍😍.
It’s so pretty and the snow was amazing. Yes I plan on doing headbands this next winter ❄️
I wonder if you should be teaching all your students how to do a One Rein Stop, ✋🏻 or at least how to circle them... 🤔
Omg! so fun watching them run free, Prince Charming must be pretty much all healed up? He looks so happy running….
Yes he’s doing great! He’s healed now just continued strengthening.
❣💯 "Some really good horsemanship," quoting you back, Shae & Piper. Farm and ranch people in Michigan are neighborly and watch out for loose horses. Not only are your horses majestic, Shae, but you and your team turn a challenge into a great learning experience.
This is actually my first time seeing a couple of expert equestrians go into the freezing snow on horses and, on the fly, Piper knew to dismount as Olaf had a mind of his own and wanted to go back to the barn. Kudos 💯Piper 💯 and keep up the great riding!
Thank you! It was quite the experience and I’m just thankful it all turned out okay. Definitely some lessons learned and some great horsemanship plus a little excitement as well 😂❤️🐎❄️.
Never a dull moment at Free Spirit Equestrian Farm. Even your neighbors get in on the excitement. We used to be in a tight farming community and everyone enjoyed that organic cooking right out of the fields. Like you and Kyle had in Mexico.
The weather sucks here but at least it's not a frost advisory, with ice shards sticking to your glasses or clothes. Just overcast which justified that second cup of organic Arabica medium roast brew. You handle stress well! A runaway horse reminds me of the runaway car I had once, but being quick on the feet, I could catch up with it rolling and slammed the brakes, lol! 😀
All the horses running together, in the fresh snow, it was magical to watch! It makes my heart happy, because your auction horses won the lottery, they have a such wonderful life, with kind training, exceptional care, a great home and lots of love from their two beautiful owners! Thank you so much for sharing!
Awww thank you!
Your enthusiasm is infectious and I so enjoyed watching all of your beauties frolicking in the snow!
Thank you so much!
You totally motivate me!
So. I noticed Olaf managed to avoid the naughty corner when he got back. You guys are such pushovers! Did Buzz ever get to go in with the rest of the herd? A day in the life, huh Shae?! Watching your little herd play was such fun! Do it again please! Wahoo! 🤠🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎💓
Olaf didn’t do a thing wrong, horses don’t think like that. He didn’t bolt or take off he likes to move out and that’s that. There was not a negative thought or punishment involved. It’s not being a pushover it’s understanding how a horse’s mind works. I know you mean well but just explaining my take on it since I was there haha! It was a fun day! Buzz is in with half the herd. I’m not letting him go with the entire herd right now. This spring or summer I will. 😂❤️❤️
@@freespiritequestrian if you ever make a video about when to emergency dismount I'd be interested. I had a few traumatic times when horses "ran away" with me on them. I guess I felt responsible to stay on and get THEM home safely, and/ or I didn't think it was safe to try and do the emergency dismount (full on gallop.) I guess one learns to stay calm enough to assess and choose safest course of action?
@@freespiritequestrian Shae, you did not take my comment as I meant it. I knew all of what your response said. I was making a joke, which you didn't "get". Goodness me, ease up, girl! 🥰
@@rodandjudibowen5665 I know you’re light hearted and I love that and all of your comments/support! However, there are so many people out there that actually think like that and it’s my job to educate and bring awareness that’s all. ❤️🐎💖
@@freespiritequestrian 💟
Horses playing in the snow had to be one of the most beautiful things to see!!! Thank you for sharing!!
It really is!
Glad everything worked out... That got a little intense .. Beautiful scenery, I just love the snow. Thanks for sharing Shae...
Thanks for watching!
Oh,I LOVED riding in the snow!Sadly we don't get real winters anymore,in the north of Germany....but back then,in the early 90ies,I cantered through the small town,very slowly with my mare,on a thick layer of fresh snow on the streets💓She only cantered,wasn't able to just walk slow😂It is such a beautiful memory in my head💓
That’s so funny! ❄️❤️🐎
Loved watching you riding your horses! Thanks for letting us all go along with you.
The scenery was breathtaking! I especially loved when you turned out all the horses in the pasture to run in the snow, slowing the camera down and adding that awesome music! Thank you so much for sharing your snow adventure!
I’m so glad you liked this video! It was one of my favorites to make.
I'm no longer able to ride, so pretending to ride along with you, gave me chills and tears. Thank you for sharing.
I enjoyed riding along on the trail with you. The trees were beautiful covered in snow, a true winter wonderland. The horse snow ballet at the end was awesome.
Nothing better than to watch horses free running especially in the snow
🐎🐎🐎❄️❄️❄️
Great job Piper! I love watching any horse run free and wild they’re so beautiful!!
Thank you!
That’s my moms house Olaf ran too! We grew up there so glad you still do horses the Elliot’s original owners taught us to ride years ago. Glad Olaf is safe.
Crazy! Yes, I’ve heard a lot about the Elliot’s! So much history here ❤️❤️❤️❤️. That’s awesome you used to ride with them.
I have been on several horses throughout my life who have gone into what we call a "dead run". They get something in their head and they want to head home usually. But it can be very dangerous because if you cross a road you can be hit by a car obviously. What I learned, is if you grab one of the reins and pull the horse's face to their rear end, they will stop. They will slow down anyway. You just have to lean in a little bit the way you are pulling. I had to bail off as a kid but then I learned about that little trick💓🏇, (pulling the face to the rear end). It really does work like a charm.
* I am so glad that the Horse and rider are okay.🙏
❤so far never had to bail. Just kept working with horse until it calmed down and allowed me to regain control
Soooo magical!!! Thankyou. Goodnight from a very wet New Zealand.
Thanks for watching!
Watching the horses run in the snow and having so much fun is down right awe inspiring.
So glad everything ended up being okay! The clips of everyone running in the field at the end is SO epic. I absolutely love your herd❤️
Not going to lie I watched the end part like 10x while I was editing because I was in awe of my sweet horses! Lol 😂
@@freespiritequestrian oh I was in COMPLETE awe. It looked like something out of a movie! 😂
@@lydiafredd6131 I watched the ending over and over, in complete awe, too, and because it was like being in a movie. Then they rolled in the ice, so totally happy and full of joy. Makes my day!
Arlo was like 👀 and Olaf was like🍃 that was amazing how piper got back on and you guys ended up having funnn
It was wild hahaha 😝

@@pipers6529 hey piper💅
@@izzytorres6176 heyyyyyy
Enjoyed having a virtual riding experience with you. My favourite video so far especially the end with all the beauties running in the snow. Brought tears to my eyes
Thank you! I really enjoyed making this video. I think it’s one of my favorites too. 💖💖💖
There is something absolutely magical about riding in the snow. And fun. Something I feel everybody should try. Another great video!!!💜🐎🐎💜
Couldn't agree more!
The horses running like that is magnificent and great to watch. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤love it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much!
What a beautiful ending ❤️ PS: I absolutely love your head wraps.
Thank you! 😊
OhMyGoodness!! You are truly in Magical Land!!! Love seeing your herd running in the field❤ Great job to Piper❤
glad everything turned out well. i loved watching them run free in the snow. poetry in motion. beautiful. thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant! They don't freak out, because you give them alot of 💖 and that thorough foundation.
I love going on the rides with y'all. Thank you so much for sharing
Glad you enjoyed 🐎💖
I remember riding a Shetland pony bareback in the snow many years ago. It was so nice and warm sitting on his fuzzy back and we even took a few jumps. I think he had more fun than I did 😛! Oh, to be young again and relive those days…. Thanks for the memories Shae 🥰!
That sounds magically fantastic!!!
Love this!! I would love to ride Arlo in the snow.....thank you for another great video!!
Olof is just soooo beautiful too!! Nothing beats watching all those horses playing in the snow! Love all your horses 🐎 ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
OMG one of my TOP 10 video/ felt like I was with you guys in the adventure!!!!! Thank you!❤
I love your videos!! Those trails are beautiful!! I'm so glad Olaf did not go to far!! I love Jafar!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
The snow is so pretty and being able to ride in it on the trails is magnificent. Olaf did fine - he wanted to go to the barn and he was in a hurry. You have some great horses. That do very well on trail ridges. Look at them playing. It reminds me of the wild mustangs running and playing.
Thank you!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I like how you show the ride as that we are riding the horses it is great to watch it this way. I can not ride anymore so I love to watch your vlogs when you go on the rides. Thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
The snow is so beautiful and Arlo and Olaf are super cute :) I miss my heart horse Felix so much. I wish I could ride him again, sadly I lost him last year, but was able to go and see him one last time.
Goodness I’m so sorry 😞
@@freespiritequestrian Thank you Shae
What a lovely snowy ride. Yes, things happen sometimes, but you handled it well.
Question: how did Olaf get inside the neighbor’s pasture if the gate wasn’t open? Did he jump in? Could you tell from his hoof prints what he did?
He ran behind the field a ways down and then ran back up behind my property at my neighbors house.
Such a beautiful herd of horses!
CONGRATS ON 30K I WAS HERE WITH U AT 15K U GO GIRL!!
Thank you so much!!! I’m so excited. Also, thanks for your support 💖
@@freespiritequestrian i hope u get to 1mil!! honestly my fav yt channel ever! do u have any other social media apps ur on
I really enjoy your trail riding vids. Let's me enjoy riding horses as I no longer can in life. Thums up for Piper earning her horse credit. Lol
Glad you like them! Yes she was awesome.
First winter snow and first spring ride are always the interesting ones.
Yes they are! But this isn’t our first winter ride out. We’ve been riding out all winter.
@@freespiritequestrian just more and so fluffy:)
Yes things happen like that all the time. But it's nice when nothing bad happens and it turns into a laughable memory. Good job Piper! and awesome job neighbors for helping out. I love your positive attitude, most instructors would be angry and would end the ride without giving the student another chance... it's very sad. But thankfully you are extremally kind and understanding. Awesome job!!
Yes! Thank you!
I'm loving you advocating bitless riding!
Oh my gosh! I’m glad that Piper is okay 😊 Kind of a scary situation! What a trooper to get back on tho 👏👏👏 Horses can be unpredictable for sure and luckily Olaf stayed close to home and thankful your neighbours helped with the fencing. The scenery was gorgeous and it’s crazy how snow can make everything look different, the heaviness of the snow hanging the branches quite low. I was like whoa when you were walking thru them 😅. Your music choice was fantastic as you let the herd run out the back pasture, it was so amazing watching them all ❤❤❤ Have a wonderful day ❄️❄️❄️
I love your comment so much! You really picked up on all of the details! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Ty it was scary but I got through it
How stunning are these guys, a super happy herd, you can see them developing and growing, they are so lovely 🐎💃
Thank you! I love my herd ❤️🐴
It’s sooo pretty out there and sounded like a lot of fun
💜💜💜
That was a real heart-stopper! Glad it turned out so well 🌈
When you was going to the woods I kept ducking my head down 😂😂 it felt like I was there with you it looks amazing in the snow ❤
Winter trail rides are always so gorgeous! Hope the unfortunate instance isnt too major ❤ sending love to free spirit equestrian farm
They are the best!
I loved this! Reminded me of horse back riding days Im 64 now and miss it hope to get to ride again it’s been 20 years
What a fun, exciting video! Bravo to Piper! And so beautiful watching the herd run, play, roll and rear up in the snowy pasture at the end!!!❤
A good, fun video in your winter wonderland! I loved every minute of it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love Piper's sweet smile. So glad she's ok!
She’s so sweet! Yes, me too ❤️
@@freespiritequestrian why ty
Love seeing the horses running as a herd through the snow. :)
It was epic! ❤️
Brrr, looks really cold! Makes the below freezing weather we're having in Oregon seem warm! I've ridden in snow plenty of times, so I know how snow and ice can weigh branches down to face level or lower and make for a wet ride. Part of riding is taking things as they come, and you all did great.
Yes it sure did make it wet haha. Thank you.
Snow is so bright and it's great to see every trace of animals in it , no chance to get lost then...but the branches slopes down for the heavy snow in the winter wonderland
Yes ❤️❤️❤️
So glad everyone is okay! When things happen like that it’s scary but at the end of the day you got to get back on ❤ so glad you had a good time though
Yes exactly ❤️
@@freespiritequestrian 🥰
I just love seeing the horses play in the snow! So happy to see they get to do that
I thought the same thing, glad Piper had some fluffy snow to land on! What a beautiful ride however, wow. This makes me want to move myself and my horses to MICHIGAN. Or any place that gets snow, especially around Christmas time. But I loved it when we got a nice blanket of snow here California years ago in March! That was unusual. Love your horse Argo. Really lovely mover!
Michigan can be so beautiful!!! I do love it here ❤️
I love all of your horses and thank you for posting I love all of your content! Hope all of you are okay
Thank you so much!
Nice job, Piper!! Kudos to you for rolling with it and hopping back on. Leveling up! 👏💪
Thanks for taking us along on your ride!
She’s such a good rider!!! I was so proud ❤️
Totally!! Great job working through it, too. Coming off the first time can be scary, but I bet you staying upbeat and positive helped tremendously in calming her nerves. You are such a good instructor!
Love watching your videos!! 💕
A truly magical, beautiful winter wonderland...so glad Piper and Olaf were unharmed...🐎
It was so fun despite that part haha
Since I'm watching this in August, it was refreshing. The snow scene was beautiful, just like all the horses. Tfs.
Looks like a lot of fun. Soo glad both rider and horse were ok. I'm happy you were able to finish your ride. I really enjoyed watching the horses running.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely stunning scenery! Fun fun fun
I’m so grateful for these virtual adventures.
I’m glad you like them! 🐴❤️
Beautiful horses running in the snow!
Yes they are! I love watching them.
Loved this ride❤ thx for posting!!!!
Of course! ❄️🐎💖
I just can't get enough of your videos. They bring such joy.
Awww I love this! Thanks 😊
Beautiful scenery. Looks like fun🍀🇺🇸
It was! Thank you!
Savor these days when your youth allows to get out and enjoy time in the saddle in all weathers.. After 55 years of riding, time, and many injuries have caught up to me. As I type this I am looking at my saddles that now sit, mostly idle on stands here on the mud porch. I still appreciate that on warm days I can get out and take my 25 year old Haflinger/QH cross blue roan mare for a drive with my Amish road cart. ( I have a short video of driving her on my channel) I love your videos and your enthusiasm. Thanks.
💖
❤ horses 🐎 are so much fun
What a beautiful winter background. Arlo matched the background colors, so beautiful. So sorry you had to go through that fear of where's Olaf, I could see it in your eyes. Thankfully Olaf just tried to go home, what a smart boy. At least you got to enjoy the rest of your ride and yes it's a beautiful winter wonderland. Watching all the horses run and play is just so gorgeous, they are the perfect herd. Every one of the horses is magnificent and stunning, I love them all!!
I’m in Ottawa, Ontario and we just got a big snow dump…here to say how can you ride with no gloves! Brrrrrrr my fingers freeze!
Beautiful trail ride
I had hand warmers in my pockets lol. But I don’t like gloves. I will wear them here and there though lol 😂
What a beautiful ride!!! Like a winter wonder land!
I love when the snow sticks to the branches like that.❤😂
That was a beautiful ride. Arlo is such a good boy.
Thank you. He was so good and calm. ❤️
So glad you had fun despite the "horsing" around. Piper was very brave to get back on and continue the ride. Sometimes new riders get scared and stop riding and I'm glad she got back on. As she learns confidence and balance she will improve her riding skills. Good job.
She’s pretty balanced and gallops/jumps Olaf almost 3ft. This was just something that happened. This wasn’t anything to do with riding skills. This happens to everyone no matter how skilled you are. ❤️
@@freespiritequestrian Right, just as you said it's happened a million times with Jiminy, your heart horse. Piper is a true equestrian. All young people should have the chance to live out in the great outdoors and experience the "free spirit" of the diversity of animals and plants. Thanks again, Shae, for being an awesome film producer / editor.
i think piper did the right thing glad everyone was good
Agreed ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Shae, u live all holidays all yr. long, having those beautyful horses, and the beauty that owns them, including Kyle, . I admire u r dedication, to the care and love of the horses. Love to u both.❤❤❤😊
I really enjoyed watching your horses play in the snow. I love to play in the snow too!
👍
The trail seems "branchier" because the weight of the snow is pushing the branches down into the path where they wouldn't normally be . What a beautiful ride though. I'm glad it all turned out well!
I know I said that in the video, I meant the trail was more overgrown than usual. Not just because of the snow on the branches lol
What a beautiful sight. Horses running.
I’m new to your channel. This was a dream bucket list ride for this 72 year old lady. Maybe, maybe, one day…..Looks like fun. It’s beautiful
You should! ❄️🥶💖🐎
A day riding in the snow is better than almost anything. Saddle time is better than almost everything I can think of. Almost, maybe cheesecake might run a close tie
Glad everything turned out ok, I imagine that was scary!
Looks like a magical winter wonderland ! That was beautiful watching them run , did you get some still shots that would make great prints ! I'd definitely purchase one !
That’s a good idea!!!! Thank you.
What a beautiful ride in the winter ☃️ wonderland. ❤❤
This reminds me of the time I came home from the grocery-turned the bend in the road and there were our two quarter horses out in the middle of the road!! Thank GOD no other cars had come along on this country road!! It was the only time they had “escaped”-but I sure freaked at the sight of them as they got out from the back 5 acres, crossed an acre of the front lawn, and were “exploring” all on their own....so funny, but ONLY because nothing bad happened!!
wow looks magical hope everyone was ok looks sooo fun thx for the fun videos your such a good rider and person hope you and you and ezzy and her friend get along great
Wonderful video. I've never ridden in snow and since I can't ride anymore, listening to the horses hooves in the snow was amazing.
Very resilient of the young lady to resume the trek.
Seeing the herd play was friggin awesome lol Wonderful majestic cuties all having fun. Love it!
I really admire you and your work. I miss being around the beautiful souls
Much love to you all xxxx
VERY NICE CONTROLL OF THE SITUATION.. PIPER DID WELL.. AND YOU RE ENCOURAGED HER TO GET BACK UP.. YES HORSES DO CRAZY THINGS.. I'M A FIRM BELIEVER AS BUDDY RIDE .. SHOULDN'T GO OUT RIDING THE TRAILS ALONE.. ARLOW WAS JUST FEELING HIS OATS... RESPECT TO YOU AS ALWAYS.. 🎉🎉 TELL PIPPER YOUR NOT A TRUE HORSE PERSON UNTILL YOU FALL ATLEAST 8 TIMES AND GET BACK UP.. LOL .. GOOD JOB!! 🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What fun…awesome video. Made me a little homesick.🥰
This is what riding in Canada is like all winter!!! The branches are there because the snow has weighted them down.
Beautiful snowy ride.
Love the sound of the snow under hood!
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the ride. It's been fun
What a lovely video of your beautiful horses
Thank you so much!
Man you stay sooo cool and calm when crazy things happen! Good job
