Here we go!

- The beautiful back country of Montana
is an adventure lover's paradise.
From the towering mountains,
to the flowing expanse
of golden prairies.
This wilderness can be enjoyed in many ways.
Yet nothing is more classic than
to explore it on horseback.
Today we are on location,
visiting the ranches at Belt Creek.
What's going on Coyote Pack?
Today we are on location in Belt,
Montana.
Now we've actually filmed episodes here before
and in the past we showed you guys some horses,
and you all wrote in the comment section said:
"Coyote why didn't you guys
do a horseback riding episode?"
So today we're here with Mark Hawn,
and we're gonna head on to the ranch aren't we?
- Yeah so we're getting ready
to head out on seven thousand acres
of pristine Montana wilderness.
Heading down into a dry canyon,
up to the mountain tops.
Gonna be absolutely beautiful.
- And we're going on the horses right?
- Yes: riding on horses
through the ranches of Belt Creek.
- Okay well if you guys are ready.
I know the crew and I are ready.
Let's saddle up,
and head out there!
The overall goal of this adventure,
aside from admiring the beautiful expanse of this landscape;
is to ride the horses out through the valleys,
and up onto a vista where we can capture
some epic drone shots.
But before we can head out,
first: let's meet our horses.
One of the pack?
Mario what's this: one of the pack?
- What?
Oh do you like that?
- That's cool where'd you get that?
- I'm one of the first ones who actually get this.
This is the official Coyote Pack Backpack Tag.
- I didn't know that those were out yet.
- Shhh it's a secret.
- What's your horse's name?
- This is Sunny.
- Hi buddy.
That's a good looking horse right there.
- Hey how are ya?
- This expedition into the wilds of Montana
will be led by Jenny Hennes:
who has spent her entire life training
and riding horses.
Alright guys we are heading out
to ride some horses today.
And now Jenny this is Dorrito?
- Correct.
- And this is the horse I'll be riding.
- This is your horse.
- Yes!
I love paint horses.
Alright I'm gonna actually climb up on to the horse now.
Is it okay to mount?
- Go for it.
- Here we go.
You guys ready?
- Lets see it.
- Oh boy.
- Very graceful.
- That's right.
Ready to go.
- You've done this before.
- I was actually an extra in Dances With Wolves.
- That's not true.
- How do the stirrups feel? - Alright.
- Is that true Mario?
- Absolutely not.
- Saddle up cowboys,
I'll wait for you.
- Alright. - Are we gonna race?
- No lone riders out here.
- No.
- I don't think we're supposed
to race Mario.
- Hey Dorrito how's it going buddy?
- What's the horse's name Mario?
- His name's Dorrito.
- Dorrito? - Yeah.
I like Dorritos. - Cool Ranch Dorrito.
Oh I see what you did there.
- Yeah.
Coolest horse in the herd.
Alright guys,
I'm putting on my sunglasses true cowboy style.
Here we go.
- I don't think cowboys had sunglasses.
- Well they do now.
Alright boys well you better saddle up.
- Ready Mario? - Ready.
Alright lets go. - Let's mount up!
- Here we go.
Thank you Mario;
for my camera. - Pass you that.
Good luck buddy.
We'll see ya on the trail. - Alright.
See ya.
Nice to meet ya Dusty.
And how is he? - He's great.
He's great? - Trustworthy.
Alright trustworthy,
and I can leave everyone in my dust right?
(chuckles)
- I don't know if he leaves people in the dust
or if he gets left in the dust.
(laughing)
I'm not sure where his name comes from.
- Ryan how you doin?
- Oh I'm going.
- Alright we got Ryan out here today.
He's one of the Brave Wilderness Editors.
- [Chris] Off trail off trail!
- This is your first
time horse back riding isn't it?
- First time.
- [Chris] First time off trail already.
- [Chris] Sunny gotta a carrot over here.
Oh Sunny oh boy.
Just pass by me okay.
Beautiful Sunny.
Beautiful.
- Sunny likes you Chris.
- [Chris] Beautiful.
Alright stop.
(laughing)
- Alright guys we are headed
down into the canyon right now.
What's really cool is this little dog here running with us,
that's Busy.
And Busy pretty much runs the show around here,
keeps all the bears away.
- Dorrito,
Dusty,
and Blackjack
are all highly trained thoroughbred horses.
And they are known for their agility,
speed,
and high-spirited personalities.
And it didn't take us long,
to realize that each of these horses
definitely have their own personalities.
- Why are we going down here?
Blackjack no.
- Uh oh.
(horse hooves)
- That's my first-person perspective right there.
You guys are watching,
and this is exactly what it feels
like to trot; check this out.
Here we go.
Good girl.
Whoo!
Yep very bouncy shot right there.
- How's it going Coyote?
- Good how's Dusty doing?
- Dusty's doing great.
- How are we looking Jenny?
- Looking good.
- So far so good.
We've made it part-way down into the canyon.
Dusty how ya feeling?
How about you Dorrito?
Good horse huh?
Dorrito's doing an awesome job.
I just finished giving the audience
a first-person perspective in trotting.
- Whoa.
- It's a bit of a bouncy shot.
- It is bouncy.
He's got the gimbal.
- How's it going guys?
- Going good.
- Gimbal's working it well on this horse.
- Nice.
- Alright see you later guys.
- Forward ho.
(western music)
(horses trot)
- How's it going Mark?
- It's going good.
Three amigos with Go-pros.
- I'm having a good time on the trail.
Eating flies,
looking for bears.
- Whoa!
Strike zone.
- Riding horseback out in the back country of Montana,
doesn't get much better than this.
Isn't that right Blackjack?
He said yeah.
- Wow it's pretty cool to be out here
in Montana on horses,
and I can just imagine what it was
like back 100 years ago when people
were coming across the prairie.
Settling some
of these lands and just experiencing this wilderness
for the first time.
Pretty cool.
(uplifting music)
(horses trot)
(uplifting music continues)
(uplifting music ends)
- Whooo look at that view!
Wow big sky Montana.
- We made it.
- Yes!
What an epic ride huh guys?
- That was incredible. - Yeah.
- Certainly was: exploring through the canyons
and finally making it to this plateau,
which looks like the perfect place to fly the drone.
- I think that sounds about right.
Why don't we get the bird out; get some epic shots?
- That sounds good to me.
Alright guys how about an off-show?
- Let's do it.
- I'm Coyote Peterson.
- I'm Mario Aldecoa.
- And I'm Mark Vins.
- Be brave.
- Stay wild! - Stay wild!
- We'll see ya on the next location.
Alright!
Whoo!
- Alright let's turn her on.
Here we go.
(drone buzzes)
(western music)
