Bradshaw Mountains Arizona Video

While filming in Arizona, we were able to trail ride just outside of Phoenix in the Bradshaw Mountains. The trails were kept up well and my guide, Joseph of Windwalker Expeditions, who leads day rides into the mountains on forward going horses, knew the area well. Just watch out for those jumping cholla and stick to the trails if you ride here!

Icelandic Horses & Culture Video

Learn about Icelandic Horses and Culture in this Equitrekking produced video.



I traveled to Iceland to ride with Diddi, one of Iceland's top riders. I was a little intimated to ride with him at first, as he's really good, and I was just getting used to the Icelandics, but it was an amazing experience. We rode through an area of red pseudocraters and Diddi explained why Icelanders are very proud of their horses.
