Back Country Horsemen - Wasatch Front Chapter State-wide organization concerned about sustained equestrian access and proper use on public lands. OUR PURPOSE:
1.

WHO WE ARE:
Back Country Horsemen of Utah (BCHU) is a state-wide organization of men and women concerned about sustained equestrian access and proper use on our public lands. We are the Utah members of Back Country Horsemen of America (BCHA) with the same commitment to protecting the access of equestrians to public lands. WHAT WE DO:
We are devoted equestrians who love to ride and explore new trails, and we assist with trail maintenance and improvement projects, keeping trails clear for all user groups. To perpetuate the common sense use and enjoyment of horses and mules in America's back country and wilderness.
2. To work to ensure the public lands remain open to recreational pack and saddle stock use.
3. To assist the agencies responsible for the management of public lands.
4. To educate, encourage and solicit active participation in wise and sustaining use of back country resources by horsemen and the general public, commensurate with our heritage.
5. To foster and encourage the formation of new chapters of Back Country Horsemen throughout Utah. OUR VISION:
In order to protect our heritage of back country stock use, we have joined service and education as composites to encourage and solicit active participation in the wise use of the back country resource by horsemen and the general public commensurate with our heritage. We welcome riders of all types, ages and interests into our chapters!

Butter's Construction is delivering road base and sand for the construction area. Brazzen Livestock panels are delivered and waiting to install.

Building updates: It's coming along. Straight Edge Design & Build is doing a great job. We love watching the progress and occasionally providing lunch for the building crew. This project would not be possible without the support of Community Foundation of Ogden Valley, RAMP, Weber Co. Parks and Recreation, Utah Department of Natural Resources, Trails Foundation of Northern Utah and too many other supporters to list. We hope to schedule a grand opening in mid-September to thank our supporters and enjoy the shade!

Lack of snow in Utah brings for early trail work. Just cleared our first trail of the season at North Fork Park in Liberty. We brought in a small crew and a pack horse to pull out the "real chainsaw" and clear some downed trees. Let the trail work begin!
