Our Mission
|
Our Commandments
|
|
To perpetuate the common sense use and enjoyment of horses in America's back country and wilderness. |
The horseman shall not keep horses longer than it takes to unpack or pack them in any campsite normally used by hikers. (We suggest horsemen stay away from such camps if possible). |
|
To work to ensure that public lands remain open to recreational stock use. |
The horseman shall not tie his stock, for more than a short period of time, directly to a tree. |
|
To assist the many agencies responsible for the management of public lands. |
The horseman shall not cut switchbacks. |
|
To educate, encourage, and solicit active participation in the wise and sustaining use of the back country resource by horsemen and the general public commensurate with our heritage. |
The horseman shall not leave a campfire unattended. |
|
To foster and encourage the formation of new Back Country Horsemen organizations. |
The horseman shall properly dispose of all manure, bailing twine, wire and waste hay in camp areas, trailheads, or loading areas. |
|
BCHU serves the common interest of its members by providing them an opportunity to influence laws, regulations, and attitudes regarding the use of pack and saddle stock on all public lands. |
The horseman shall abide by the administrative rules and regulations affecting the area he/she is in. |
|
|
The horseman shall recognize the fragility of the back country environment and practice minimum impact techniques at all times. |
