We are very proud that our Rocky Mountain horses are registered with the Rocky Mountain Horse Association. We are avid trail riders and love to camp with our horses. We enjoy seeing and comparing other gaited horse breeds with our horses. We chose the Rocky Mountain Horse for our family because of their wonderful sweet easy natured temperament, extremely smooth gait, and their kind eye. In the journey to find your own gaited horse, we suggest you keep all your options open, learn all you can, and pick to please yourself.
Listed below are some of our favorite links.

Finding a farrier to shoe and trim your gaited horse is so important to maintaining that wonderful gait. In our relocations through out the years, we have found this site to be helpful. Here in Iowa, through this site, we found Jeff Ridley, and we appreciate everything Jeff does for us and our horses.
Gaits of Gold
This is Brenda Imus' website. Larry and I are fortunate to have met and trail ridden with Brenda Imus several times at Golden Hills Trail Rides and Resort in Raymondville MO. Brenda is a no nonsense person with excellent explainations and qeuipment for gaited horses of all breeds. Brenda has riden Nikki on the trails, and loved her way of going. Brenda's comments about Larry's horse, Eboney: "if I were going to own a Rocky Muntain Horse, I'd want her!"
