Re: [RC] Scratches - Barbara McCrary

I've had experiences with two kinds of horses....ones who return home via trail and ones who return home via direction, never mind the trail, just head cross-country by internal compass. :-))

Yes, I was just wondering (and maybe I'll post this to ridecamp, because I know the group will know), when we are in the middle of our lovely trail wandering, how good is my horse's sense of direction? If I ride her in a loop over the hills, will she still realize we're heading home if we come down the other side of the ridge? I bet she does! Need to check it out. Other observations on horses' sense of direction?
