Yes it is. However, the ride management and one's insurance company will have
nothing to do with a rider whose horse spooks off a trail and dumps a rider
onto a boulder, thus cracking his head open. After all, this is not ping pong
:) and carries with it inherent risks, more so than most equestrian sports,
which carry risks themselves. No, I think that the responsibility for paying
the price of a choice belongs to the individual who was allowed to make the
choice. Now, if ride management was derelict in its obligation to provide
information of all known hazards and your horse falls off a cliff because of
it, that's different. So So SO...
