Leave No Trace
Backcountry Horsemen of California provide educational events and information to members and the public. The objectives of Leave No Trace and BCHC align greatly, and we are proud to be partnered with LNT since 2011. We believe that the wilderness and any public land should be left the same – or better – than you found it.

Wilderness Riders
The Wilderness Rider program is a partnership between Backcountry Horsemen of California, the National Park Service, the USDA Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management. Wilderness Riders are trained stock users who have made a commitment to educating others about the value of wild lands and the importance of Gentle Use / Leave No Trace Skills. |
