Riding Your Horse on Hills
can pick up your reining hand for contact if needed. Riding with one hand push your free hand down on the saddle horn.
Keep your shoulders up and backbut not leaning back on the horses hindquarters or touching the back of the saddle. Again think of keeping your body parallel to the trees.

Make sure you are standing straight up between the earth and the sun Aaron says. He adds that you should keep weight in your stirrups and your heels down.
مع وصول أونصة الذهب إلى مستويات قياسية تجاوزت 2500 دولار، يجد المواطن المصري نفسه مضطراً لموازنة استثماراته بين الذهب واحتياجاته الأخرى، خاصة مع ارتفاع أسعار السيارات مثل تويوتا، هيونداي، وبي إم دبليو، مما يزيد من التحديات المالية التي يواجهها.
When a truck drives down a mountain pass the driver uses a low gear to keep the truck moving slowly instead of riding the brakes. Imagine your horse moving in a slow gear as he travels downhill too. You may need to slowly and gently pull up with your reining hand occasionally to apply the brakes. If necessary ask your horse to stop and start again.
If your horse starts to build speed then his balance is much harder to control Aaron says.
While it may be tempting for your horse to trot or speed up once he sees the end of the hill keep him slow. Picking his way along slowly will help him know where his hooves are placed and help him to build muscle too.

Make sure not to ride too close to the horse in front of you. The lead horse will need to find his way down and have time to pick the best path without rushing. Keep at least a horselength in between horses just in case a horse takes a misstep. Plus you dont want to pile up at the bottom or the top of a hill. Make sure theres somewhere safe to stop to as you wait for others to finish the path.
Aaron also recommends avoiding any narrow and steep paths. He says horses need space to widen their back legs as they lean back to balance. If you ride through two big rocks or bushes your horse may not be able to widen his stance to balance.
Voice your concerns to your trail mates and let them know what feels safe for you he says.
