About the event
Heart & Hooves South Dakota Retreat
June 12–19, 2026
Hell Canyon Ranch • Custer, South Dakota
Hosted by Michelle Jerry – Heart & Hooves Horsemanship
This retreat is about riding together, exploring beautiful country, and enjoying time with good horses and good people. We simply travel as a group of friends — sharing the trail, the scenery, and the experience. You'll have the support of Michelle, a Ken McNabb Master Trainer, riding right alongside everyone — offering encouragement, a steady presence, and the quiet confidence that comes from years of horsemanship. Nothing formal, nothing structured — just a calm, experienced horsewoman in the group with you.
And just as important — you’ll be surrounded by H&H friends:
• Familiar faces who return year after year
• New riders joining the family for the first time
All welcomed. All supported. All included. That’s the Heart & Hooves way.
Riding
We spend our days exploring:
• Creek crossings
• Rock formations
• Pine forests & open views
• Peaceful country that feels like you stepped back in time
Riders can choose relaxed scenic loops or more adventurous terrain — whatever fits you and your horse best.
Evenings at Camp
After the ride, we come back to:
• Home-cooked meals by Francis Jerry
• Relaxed campfire time
• Good conversations and easy laughter
It feels like family — even if you just met.
