The History and Legacy of Appaloosa Horses

With today, December 13 being National Horse Day, we're sharing this episode of Big Blend Radio's "ABC's of Horses" equestrian podcast with equestrian expert Christy Wood that focuses on Appaloosa Horses 

Christy Wood is now on her second 13-year circuit of the Chief Joseph Trail Ride, a progressive trail ride hosted by the Appaloosa Horse Club (ApHC). A portion of the ride is completed each year, with the entire sequence taking thirteen years to complete. Its route traces, as closely as possible, the route Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce took while attempting to escape the US Cavalry in 1877.  Her latest book, “Hoofprints Across Time: A Trail Ride to Remember," is a memoir about her experiences in the Chief Joseph Trail Ride.
