14 year old (born in 2012) gelding. All go and no whoa. Tall and strong, about 16 hands. This horse is very high spirited. Very fast smooth walker. I've owned him since he was born. He has traveled 1000's of miles in the mountains doing eveything a mountain horse could do. Crosses streams, mud, trees, snow, rocks. Ridden in the dark for many miles. Has been ridden with a crouper and doesn't mind a bit. He has no buck. He'll pack anything you put on him and never, never go slow and drag your arm off. He has packed antlers, elk, deer, and camping supplies. He neck reins very well. When heading home if you pull up on the reins to stop him he will stop for about 2 seconds and then he gets antsy wanting to keep going. I've never wore spurs on him, never had a need to, he is all go and no whoa. I used to ride him a lot by himself and he seemed to do even better by himself. He has been ridden off trail a lot hunting and antler hunting. He is a friendly horse, my kids have ridden him as shown in pictures, however he is NOT a kids horse. He has only been shoed on a table.

Now for the not so good. He shys away when you try to throw the saddle on him. He can be difficult to catch. When you try to hold him back when headed home he throws his head and walks sideways. He has always been a healthy horse, i forgot to worm him last fall and so he did get worms and rub the hair off his tail, but I wormed him about 2 months ago and he seems to be growing the hair back. I thoroughly enjoyed this horse for many years when it was just me, but I have kids riding with me now and he is just too much for them to handle.

If you want a horse that has speed walking, endurance, and will pack anything, this is the horse for you. He has never been used to chase cows or in an arena, he has only been used in the mountains. $4500 OBO
