Wow, what a great place. I discovered on my heart horse his happy place was on trail, the more difficult the happier he was. I even had someone offer me big $$, man said he had been watching my horse for 2 weeks. I had to disappoint him,my horse wasnt for sale. Loved the terrain, mountains, measows, massive boulders, wild life. Great training area.

[@CarolKeller-pw5ho]

Thank you both for taking me and all the other horse lovers on a spectacular trail ride in Ohio. SO exciting and ,for those of us who may not be able to ride anymore, you all made my day I will be watching this clip many more Times! Carol former horse owner and a forever horse lover.

[@sliphippy]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY yes you are blessed and 31 is so young. Im 70 and love to watch your videos.

[@carolineharrold4460]

You were so lucky to go to such a gorgeous place for your birthday! Thank you so much for taking us with you, I totally enjoyed it! I am 60 now and, because of poor health I am unable to ride anymore but it was great to go along with you. 😀

[@freespiritequestrian]

I’m so very thankful for these moments. I’m sorry you can’t ride! Wish you could. ❤️

[@susanhunter8272]

I'm so glad your husband does so much with you. He's a special guy!!! This trip was beautiful!!!

[@kapro9909]

Chlorella is only trying to keep you safe. She hear your voice and she already know that the Storm is near. She calls out for the Others Horse behind her and she have a Problem on the left Leg because of the hurry and the Mud. Happy Birthday 🎉

[@lizzieb6311]

Beautiful! I miss Ohio… that is where I grew up with my Appaloosa Mingo. My favorite thing about your channel and YOU is that you give your horses.. and dog.. their best life… trips away from the arena. They are happy, healthy, and well balanced. You and your Husband are amazing 🙌♥♥♥

[@freespiritequestrian]

You’re so sweet! Thank you 😊

[@bonniebethel1234]

That was a really nice horse camp. The amenities were fantastic. To be able to shower after riding is great.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes it was gorgeous!

[@elizabethbordeaux2741]

You are an amazing equestrian. Thank you for the experiences. I just turned 74, and my riding days are over, but I enjoy riding vicariously through you.

[@susanford6926]

Its nice to see you and kyle riding and having couple time!!😃

[@carolwhite5665]

I have really enjoyed this I have not been able to be on a trail ride in years but just watching you has brought back all the memories. I could almost smell the scent of the horse and hear the Creek of the saddle the movement of the horse beneath me of the? slight breeze in my face as you ride along ❤ I really miss trail riding. And I really really miss my horses. Thank you for sharing

[@vernaedwards7263]

I sure would to. have horses again!!!!!

[@normabergeron5533]

I am so glad for you good equestrians who bring these memories to older people who cannot ride anymore. I go to sleep at night remembering the feel of being in tune with my horse. You're gonna make me cry, with thememory. The fèel of my horse,the togetherness. All of it.

[@rodandjudibowen5665]

Happy Birthday, Shea! Cruella cracks me up. If I was 50 years younger, you would have me trying to out-bid everybody else when it came time to sell her. Her personality reminds me of my own. Arlo's longer legs are no match for Cruella's gumption. But Arlo is an angel, too. Hugs 🤠💟

[@freespiritequestrian]

You are so funny! She is such a kick a$$ pony! Arlo is so chill and funny 😆

[@sharonholmes8097]

Cruella sure loves water!😅🥰 I’ve always wanted a horse that I could hop on and go for a ride, and not worry about the horse doing something.🥰🥰🥰 All your horses are gorgeous!!!

[@freespiritequestrian]

She really does! She could hang there all day lol thank you!!!!

[@pennyhazen4763]

Love doing these rides with you. Beautiful and peaceful.

[@BrendaHaltom-cs6ck]

Arita is fleet and sure-footed for sure! Glad you and Kyle went on this trail ride together! Arlo looks great so well!!❤️🐎❤️🐎

[@Eversad1]

Its almost as good as if i was riding 😄 thanks.

[@94mandydallas]

The cave is about 50 feet upupup! Omg I love that cave. You're crew must've cleaned it up for you. It's normally a mess.. drinking /smoking etc

[@NicolaGray-vx8uh]

Love watching your trail riding videos. The places you ride are beautiful , feels like I'm right there riding with you. Thank you

[@vernaedwards7263]

Your horses are so beautifull

[@94mandydallas]

I went to Ohio Univesity! Called ourselves Harvard on the Hocking. I rode those trails 1982-84. Thx for the great trip down memory lane ❤

[@bernadettepierce8020]

You are so kind to your animals. It’s fun to watch. They all love you. They have a happy life.

[@LHeventing]

Your videos are so amazing and keep me going 😭❤️ A hurricane just hit, so I can’t see my mare. My mare is my best friend in the whole world, so I miss her to death…. Your videos are really helping me. I’ve only had my mare for about 8 months, and she has transformed so much. At first, she was a crazy, OTTB, now, she’s a calm mare, who lets me ride her up to her pasture in only a halter. I adore your videos, and please never stop! You are so amazingly talented ❤️❤️ Edit: and I love how well you work with horses. You are so good with them. All of your horses love you, which is not something you see with KZbinrs. Thank you so much for always posting ❤️

[@freespiritequestrian]

Wow thank you so much. Are you doing okay with the aftermath? That must have been awful!

[@rosesmail4323]

Your right about, riding a horse out in the wilderness, it's the best thing in the world. I can't imagine people never experiencing such a heavenly, fun on this earth, and people like you Shey and Kyle, that love and take excellent love ❤️ and care, love you both,iam 73, ,old Nana, here in FL. God bless u both.❤❤❤❤😂

[@louiseodams9988]

A very Happy, Happy belated Birthday, your whole trip looked absolutely awesome! 🐴🐎🦄🎂

[@boblani8150]

Your right, may be one of the most beautiful videos I have seen in You Tube. Thank You.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Awww thank you!!

[@kimberlyrada4748]

Seen shows on PBS ON Hocking Hills never heard them talk about the horse part. It's beautiful.

[@freespiritequestrian]

It’s so cool!

[@kriskauffold6926]

I just love the trails and campgrounds that you find! And, Happy Birthday!

[@sallydunn9435]

You are the same as me…love a forward horse. She really likes to lead and keep up the pace. My heart horse.. java looked like , hafar and was very forward. I’m 84 now and not riding, miss it every day.❤

[@joretta8251]

I’ve done trail rides there too. Seen Indian Head, rode through Moonville tunnel, taken a break at Bucks which looks like a western saloon in the woods. One of the creeks has a refreshing stone spring fed fountain. Sometimes the horses join us for a sip and drink out of the fountain too, great times.

[@kimmy9737]

Naw my darling Arlo... he is so cute and cheeky (and my secret fav)

[@rockysmumakagma]

Wow! What a beautiful horse camp, everything is so clean and tidy 😊🐴

[@freespiritequestrian]

It was super well maintained ❤️

[@izzytorres6176]

That looks soo cool and just a wonderful place to be

[@freespiritequestrian]

It was an adventure for sure!

[@karlygelinas214]

Cruella has the cutest ears! 🐴

[@freespiritequestrian]

Awww!!! I love watching them when I’m riding her ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@toniboyle9809]

You brought me with you! I could almost feel the humidity and smell the air. I felt the rhythm of the Horses. So totally cool! Thank you Shea and Kyle.

[@sasmythe9350]

Whooo. What an adventure. I live about an hour plus from Hocking Hills so I understand Ohio weather. Wew!

[@freespiritequestrian]

Haha yes! Good Midwest randomness lol 😂

[@evelynjepson5955]

she will have all sorts of stories to tell the others when she is back.

[@blaiseaimee7098]

Wow! Cruella went from trail newbie to seasoned trail horse overnight!

[@freespiritequestrian]

I couldn’t believe it!

[@elizabethsakurai3628]

Cruelly is a wonder. What a beautiful trail ride. Thank you for sharing!!

[@freespiritequestrian]

Of course! It was an adventure!

[@carriekruse9016]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOPE YOU HAD AN AWESOME DAY

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! It was great 👍

[@PoteauCowboy]

Great Video... Horse and Rider first, trails second. Video never shows how steep the trail really is. Happy Birthday....

[@freespiritequestrian]

Truth! Thank you 😊

[@cyndiebill6631]

WOW!!!!!🐎🐎🐎🐎♥️What a beautiful trail! What an awesome way to spend your Bday. You are so right about trail horses. To me a great trail horse at 1000$ is worth more than any expensive show horse any day. I’ve was stuck in a storm and got soaked. Thank god it was just rain and not a t-storm. Thank you for taking me on your amazing ride. Your horses are wonderful.♥️🐎😊

[@nancyguenther5895]

Love the camp grounds the shower beautiful love the caves

[@freespiritequestrian]

Totally agree!!! That’s crazy you got soaked, I’ve had that happen too lol. Thank you!

[@marym796]

Such a beautiful place you are very blessed ❣️😍

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! I’m so grateful ❤️

[@ghosttabby1373]

What gorgeous country to ride in! I’ve never heard of horse camps before, I don’t think we have them in Australia. This one certainly is well set up. Thank you for taking us along on your adventure - I’m unable to ride anymore so this is the next best thing 😊

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! Yes, we have tons of horse camps throughout the US. It’s super fun and makes camping easier and enjoyable with horses. ❤️

[@margomoore4527]

Awestruck by Cruella! That mare has sense! She told you how she felt about walking because she wanted to trot all the way to the stall! “Mom, don’t you know the storm is coming? Let me get you home!” I know, the footing was dangerous. What a willing mare! What a partner! Amazing!

[@molmol335]

I love how Arlo dosent seem to like the water but also dosent care lol

[@freespiritequestrian]

He actually loves the water 💦

[@laurenw1168]

I love that you went to Hocking! I only live about an hour and a half away and it's gorgeous there 😊

[@lindag4484]

Scary storm, but so much fun! I have been to Hocking Hills, as a young teenager. Most people don't think of this type of landscape when they think of Ohio. I was born in Ohio but haven't lived there in a long time. (In New England now) I love your adventures, the horses (of course), and your uplifting, positive spirit. 🐴❤

[@ElizabethMorath-su5xz]

Horses are the bright ones when it comes to footing - GOD bless Cruella... so amazing and top class this trail horse...and Arlo accompanied her exceedingly well

[@chriswhittington294]

I love Hocking Hills! Such a beautiful area. So glad you & Kyle enjoyed it. ❤

[@claireleone]

Shes exactly my type of mare 😊😊 ❤

[@janetcameron4743]

I'm convinced, Shea! What could be better than riding ANYWHERE on a skilled trail horse? They seem to be the 'triathletes' of the equine world. No. 1 on my bucket list now, thanks. I'm only 68... plenty of time. 😊 And yes, that is certainly a beautiful horse camp.

[@mandycook9037]

Cruella loves water so much she may have been a mermaid in a previous life or even a seahorse.😀

[@freespiritequestrian]

Hahahaha yes!!!

[@kathrynsinclare8459]

Oh wow, serious dirt/grass camping for you two, and a fun camp for the horses. Cool!

[@freespiritequestrian]

For sure! Thanks

[@ritaschultz6859]

Wow! Love the music Did you pick it out ! Yes Your ride is amazing !🎉🎆

[@freespiritequestrian]

You do?! Yes I picked each song haha! Picking the music takes me the longest so I’m glad you liked it!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@ElizabethMorath-su5xz]

Couldn't look more perfect glad you enjoyed it so much...the horses are gems 😁👍❤️

[@joannesmartens9442]

Amazing place. Nice creek. Good idea to do a trailride on your birthday. 💞👍

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes it was fun!!!

[@michellethompson5438]

Carmella is such a pretty mare. But for me Arlo has my heart. ❤ I just love him plus I love a gaited horse. Looks like y'all had so much fun. What a gorgeous place to ride. The cave was awesome! Thanks for taking me along. I love your channel so glad I found it.

[@freespiritequestrian]

He’s such an amazing horse and takes good care of his riders on the trail 💖.

[@toniboyle9809]

Happy Birthday! Thank you for sharing your horseback riding experiences, that place looks wonderful!

[@monicap1717]

[@freespiritequestrian]

It was a neat spot!

[@TheLoveystanton]

What a beautiful horse 🐎 ride. Thanks for taking us with you. Both horses did a great job on the trail. You are a smart horse mama getting them back before the storm hit🌧.

[@freespiritequestrian]

[@freespiritequestrian]

[@highroad3580]

Thanks again for videos of your riding adventures! So reminds me of the many trail rides in my younger days on my Peruvian Paso Horse. We rode the Appalachian trails in 4 states. Exciting ride! Happy Birthday!

[@freespiritequestrian]

Wow I bet your Paso was gorgeous, how cool. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@fleetskipper1810]

Hockinh Hills’s facility is the best. Cruella is a natural-born trail horse. How fun to ride. Is she shod or does she go shoeless?

[@freespiritequestrian]

She truly is! She’s barefoot ❤️

[@donaldroberge8719]

I like watching you every day

[@selenaflaming7381]

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! The horses took care of us :)

[@sandrakelly6839]

Awesome place & trails. I love your mare. She is 💖

[@rottiegirl0077]

So glad you had a great birthday. That was really cool. I have never been to a camp like that. The only thing was the mud. Cruella handled it like a champ. The scenery was so beautiful. My 30's were the best. Hope yours are too!

[@freespiritequestrian]

It was so amazing and Cruella really showed me what she can do! Thank you 😊

[@maizy3432]

I live 30 minutes from hocking hills and we own two cabins there 😄 (also happy birthday mines in 9 days!)

[@freespiritequestrian]

What!!! No way, that’s awesome. Hope you have a good Birthday 🥳

[@carolsteinberg5584]

Happy Birthday, Shea! I’m new to your channel and am loving it so much. I grew up with horses but logistics keep me from riding now but I feel like I’m right back in the saddle with these trail ride videos! 🥰

[@freespiritequestrian]

Awww welcome! I’m so glad you are enjoying the videos. Thank you ❤️

[@Alison-ow7cm]

Happy belated birthday so nice to see you and your hubby enjoying yourselves together love every minute of the trip thank you for taking me with you still trying to watch all your videos ❤❤

[@francesharris7982]

I love your channel. It’s so much fun going on trips with you guys.

[@lindakienle531]

Incredible way to celebrate your birthday.

[@nicsxnin6786]

Beautiful scenery! What a great trip y’all had ❤

[@Coptergirljs]

There are so many trails in Maine where I live; old logging tote roads and many many snowmobile trails we used to trail ride with our horses in the summer. I agree with you that trail riding really trains a horse. Our horses were bomb proof. I don't agree with some of the training I see people putting their horses through. To me training a horse to go across a tarp is dangerous. What is under that tarp? Out on the trail I want my horses to pick their footing. I would not allow my horses to go on a wooden bridge without me checking it out first. These are some of the things people should think about in training horses for trail riding; it could mean their life and or the life of their horse. I wish I could ride with you; brought back a lot of memories. Thanks for the video!

[@Areyousayingidontknowmyname]

Crystal falls is stunning. We have nothing like that in our area. We have sea though. But its arid land and very open. So nice to be able to see places like that. Australia has places similar but i would have to travel at the very least 500kms. Oh and loved the music choices.

[@freespiritequestrian]

I want to visit Australia sometime!!!!

[@Areyousayingidontknowmyname]

@@freespiritequestrian I hope you do. Like the US we have a varied climate. Anything from Arid desert to Snow fields. You can go on camp draft affairs. Do a bit a Jackaroo/Jillaroo adventures. Australian version of Ranch hands. But Station hands instead.

[@mandyb1320]

What a beautiful trail ride! The views were absolutely gorgeous and the horses did great! Happy Belated Birthday! Glad you had a great time and thanks for sharing.

[@meltcmelinda4012]

Absolutely gorgeous ride, thanks so much for taking us with you, God bless

[@freespiritequestrian]

Of course! Thank you 😊

[@angiepangy5716]

What about cougars or bears ? Can just imagine something jumping out at you ahhh it looks amazing seriously cool .🤠

[@ritaschultz6859]

Spectactular birthday You will cherish 💝💞🎂🎆🎉🎉👏👍

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! I sure will ❤️

[@normabergeron5533]

Riding in Calif. I learned to take along a large trash bag in my saddle bags in case of rain. My poor horse would get wet tho, before we got back, but me and the saddle stayed dry. Lol

[@brookerankin]

I like your video about trail

[@tonyaknight7098]

Hqppy Birthday!! Beautiful trails, awsome birthday ride, until the storm started rolling in😮

[@eleanornorman9979]

Love your adventures 💕. The horses seem to be enjoying themselves. Beautiful area!!☺

[@freespiritequestrian]

It was so fun!!! ❤️

[@janicecasey2247]

Love your video and how honest you are with wanting to get back before the storm

[@michelleneilson6404]

You have the most beautiful horses and you are so talented 💕

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thanks!!! It was such a beautiful place. I’m a Leo yes 🦁

[@Emurderproductions]
