Bitterroot Ranch Horses
The horses are rounded up early each morning and brought into the ranch corral.
Dude Ranch with a Unique Equine Focus
Life at the Bitterroot revolves around our horses. Their selection, breeding, training and care are of paramount importance and consume most of our energy throughout the year so that we can offer you the best possible riding vacation. Many of the horses have been born on the ranch. They socialize naturally in a herd environment and are released every afternoon to roam in a large pasture until they are gathered the next morning.
Your horses are responsive and attentive to the rider. They are more like private horses, not what one would expect on a dude ranch.

Breeding and Training
The ranch herd is made up of many different breeds including Quarter Horses, Mustangs, Percherons, Appaloosas and some lovely Welsh ponies. We raise friendly, sensible, purebred Arabians which have proved excellent for trail riding and herding cattle as well as taking jumps on our cross country course. In training the young horses we use the non confrontational techniques of Linda Tellington-Jones who has been coming to the ranch for many years to start our young Arabians.
I’ve changed my preconceptions of Arabs – your Arabs are so lovely by disposition.
-- Irene Gordon, UK
