Matt’s father-Dave licensed Guide



Avery

Elephants??

All horse people start from different backgrounds; cowboys,/cowgirls, ranchers, equestrian riders of all types, 4-H, but what about this guy? Yep, Matt got his start with elephants. For 13 years this guy was an elephant trainer working in zoo’s around the country before moving to North Idaho. Have an elephant question?, he’s your guy.

Meet the herd.

The staff at Mountain Horse Adventures holds the highest standards of care for our four legged friends. All of our horses are loyal and experienced trail horses who have been treating guests to mountain adventures for several seasons.

Family and friends are the working staff at Mountain Horse Adventures.

Matt- owner and licensed outfitter
Chrissy-staff veterinarian and wife of Matt

Ahab, who started this fool idea of having the horses work too. Coal, a quarter/arabian, smooth gaited and very responsive.
So far, Jigs has proved to be herd clown,

This is Smokey, large, strong and very gentle

Kidd is a return favorite, because he is so good to the kids. Selle is a dapple gray arab and often "ladies choice"
Samson, the shire horse, is the biggest at 1600 lbs and very strong.
