The purpose of Back Country Horsemen of Washington is to perpetuate the legal and moral claim by the American people to use horses and mules for recreation on public lands.
After the wildfires
of 2015 "settled down" a bit, Julie Johnson, Therese Ohlson, Terry Dixon, and Betty Wagoner started thinking of a place to ride on Labor Day that was close to home and that hadn’t burnt this year. They decided to ride in the Frazer Creek Wildlife Area. The area had burned last year, but the grass is growing tall again and the view looking far down the Methow River from the “upper portion” was beautiful.
