Junior Back Country Horsemen of Washington
As Jr. Back country Horsemen members we strive to become educated and experienced riders, taking notice that our limitations are bound only by our fears and our level of experience.
We always expect a high level of conduct of ourselves and will respect the opportunity for others to learn and grow in their equine knowledge and experience level.
Leaving No Trace where we tread shall always come before our personal needs or individual gains. We must recognize the value of the back country in its natural state, yet we must not discriminate against others right to use it as they wish.
Our goal is to grow within. As we grow, we learn, as we learn we teach, as we teach, we influence, may our influence impact the good in every persons path we cross and every horse or mule we ride.
Welcome to a next generation of Back Country Horsemen!
