We returned from the desert wind-whipped, sun-kissed, and soul-fed.

Our wild mustang trip this year was everything we dreamed it would be. Long days in the saddle. The crunch of hoofbeats over ancient land. Eyes meeting the gaze of the Adobe Valley & Montgomery Pass wild horses. Fireside meals and stories under a sky full of stars. A rhythm that sinks into your bones and stays.

To those of you who rode with us — thank you. You came open-hearted, ready to ride deep, and the land responded. It was one of the most powerful journeys we’ve taken yet.

June 2026 trip dates are now live.

Join us for a 4-day horseback journey through the remote Adobe Valley — where wild mustangs still roam free, ancient petroglyphs mark the stone, and the star-filled silence of the high desert offers space to reconnect.

Ride between the Sierra Nevada and White Mountains with wildlife tracker Dr. Ivana Crone and two local Paiute women who call this land home. Each day offers space for both movement and stillness: horseback journeys through sage and stone, balanced with breathwork, yin yoga, and meditation. We’ll explore sacred sites rarely accessed by outsiders, witnessing not just the wild horses — but the history, spirit, and wisdom of this place.

For over 30 years, the Montgomery Pass herd has lived untouched — balanced and free. This year, key protective language that has safeguarded wild horses from mass euthanasia for the last four decades has been quietly removed from a major congressional funding bill — The One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Without it, over 64,000 wild horses currently in government holding facilities could be killed — and traumatic roundups threaten the Montgomery Pass herd this summer.

Call California Senators Alex Padilla (202) 224-3553 and Adam Schiff (202) 224-3841. Urge them to restore the protective language for the wild horses in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that has spared excess wild horses from destruction for over 40 years, and advocate for the protection of the Adobe Valley & Montgomery Pass wild horse herds.
