At Butte Creek, horses aren’t just part of the scenery—they’re at the heart of the adventure. 🐎
For generations, Cub Scouts have come to Butte Creek Scout Ranch to experience the magic of the Old West, and nothing captures that spirit more than saddling up and riding through camp on horseback. From the first nervous steps to the wide smiles of confidence in the saddle, the horse program is a cornerstone of the Butte Creek experience.
More Than a Ride: The Horse Program
The Butte Creek horse program is more than just a chance to ride—it’s a life-changing experience. For many Cub Scouts, climbing into the saddle is their first step into a bigger world: one of courage, responsibility, and connection with animals.
This extended look at the Butte Creek herd reveals the heart of the program, from the daily care of over 70 horses to the unforgettable moments when a Scout takes the reins for the first time. It’s a tradition rooted in the spirit of the Old West, and it continues to shape memories and inspire growth in every camper who rides.
