Mustang's First Mountain Ride - Did We Train This Horse Good Enough?

The first ride out in the mountains can be a big moment for any young horse, and today marks a special milestone for us. This is day 342 since we adopted our mustang Rooster, and while this isn’t our first ride ever, it is his first true ride in the mountains. In less than a year, Rooster has gone from an untouchable mustang to a trusted partner. He’s traveled with us across multiple states, attended clinics and events, packed in the mountains, packed out a bull elk, and been ridden in the corral, around home, and at the local fairgrounds. Each step along the way has been intentional, with the goal of building confidence, softness, and a solid foundation. Today, all of that preparation comes together. Riding in the mountains brings new terrain, new sights, and new responsibility, and it’s a moment that reflects months of patience, miles, and learning together. Thank you for following along on this journey and supporting our mustang story. This is just another step forward, and we’re excited to keep sharing where it leads. 🤠 *THANKS FOR RIDING ALONG WITH US!* As always — thank you for watching! *God Bless, and don’t forget to KEEP IT WESTERN 🤠* — Jason and Alyssa 🐴 START HERE — IMPORTANT LINKS! 👉 *2026 MTN BUILT CALENDARS — AVAILABLE NOW!* https://mtnbuiltmerch.com/products/20... 👉 *Support the Mission (Donations Welcome!)* https://gofund.me/3ffcac745 👉 *Shop Our Official MTN Built Merch* https://www.mtnbuiltmerch.com 👉 *Amazon WishList — Support Our Herd & Doggos* https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/... 👉 *Subscribe for Weekly Ranch, Mule, Horse & Backcountry Videos!* (*You subscribing genuinely helps our channel grow — thank you!*) 📩 EMAIL US: [email protected] ✨ FEATURED VIDEOS (Fan Favorites!) ✨ 1️⃣ *WHAT IS A MULE?*    • What Is A Mule? [Their Surprising History ...   2️⃣ *Our Appaloosa Mules Story- Josey!*    • The Making of a Super Mule: Josey’s One-Ye...   3️⃣ *Our Mustangs First Ride!*    • Riding My Wild Mustang for the First Time!   🤠 FOLLOW OUR ADVENTURES *Instagram — Mules & Ranch Life:*   / mtn_built   *Facebook:*   / mtn-built   *Instagram — Hunting:*   / mtn_built_hunts   *YouTube — MTN Built Hunts (Our Hunting Channel):*    / @mtnbuilthunts   🐴 RELATED PLAYLISTS (Perfect for binge-watching!) *🐴 Mule Playlist:*    • EVERYTHING MULES! (And Horses too)   *🏕️ Backcountry Adventures:*    • BACKCOUNTRY ADVENTURES (Camping and Explor...   *🐓 Homesteading Playlist:*    • RURAL LIVING & HOMESTEADING   *🦌 Hunting Channel (MTN BUILT HUNTS):*    / @mtnbuilthunts   🐴 TRAIN WITH TY EVANS — MULEMANSHIP *Website:* https://www.tsmules.com *Ty Evans YouTube Channel:*    / @tsmules   🏕️ BRANDS WE LOVE & USE Roamin Home Wall Tents — https://www.roaminhome.com Cafe Mule Coffee (code MTNBUILT for 15% off!) — https://cafemule.com Murdoch’s Ranch & Home Supply — https://www.murdochs.com 📍 VIDEO CHAPTERS 0:00 — 0:00 — 0:00 — 0:00 — 0:00 — 0:00 — ⚠️ DISCLAIMER Working with equines and outdoor living can be dangerous.
