American Trail Trial-Horsemen's Association |

ATTA is an association that promotes the sports of horseback trail riding and

Trial trial rides traditionally include trail obstacles for novice,
intermediate, and advanced horseback riders and horses and also include
noncompetitive riders. Non-members are welcome on all ATTA trail trial rides.
Trail trials are a great place for you and your horse to ride new country, meet
great people, and have fun with family and friends while trying fun and
challenging obstacles on the trail. |

from requesting that authorities capture and remove the livestock. |
