reinvent the wheel,my suggestion is ride mustangs theyre born n bred in the mountain terrain,they ride good barefoot too, mules are great to,they have more stamina and eat less https://uploads.disquscdn.c... and use aussie stock saddles they'l cut 15 t0 20 lbs off the weight,for packing only pack 20% of the horses weight, they last longer n go faster.learn your animals instincts they spot the enemy before you do usually, watch their ears.also train them to ground tie if you dismount to engage the enemy, its tough chasing horses on foot.
