Any horse, any rider, any tack. While the saying might not be strictly true, competitive trail riding (CTR) is a sport that riders from any other discipline can enjoy. Competitive Trail Rides have been taking place in Alberta since the early 1970’s. A group of dedicated horsemen founded the society, Trail Riding Alberta Conference (TRAC) and set up the rules. The rules resemble the conditions faced by early pioneers, whose horses travelled vast distances at the quickest pace possible and required enough stamina for the same effort tomorrow.
