- Will o' Wisp Acres Updates - - Update 59 | Mint Meadows XC Visit with Alaska - - - - First of all, thank you so much to @minty-meadxws for opening your XC course up to the public! It's always super fun to try out some different courses, so go try out their course here! https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1205354354/ - - - Anyways, back to the update, Alaska is one of our eventing mares here at Will o' Wisp and what I love most about her is how smooth her gait is, especially for a relatively small horse. We haven't done that much cross country work lately so I was hoping a fresh new course would challenge her a little more! The first jump was already a decent size, however Alaska managed to fly over it! She's always struggled a little with downhill jumps so we took the next one a bit slower then picked up the back again to jump back uphill. She had to balance a little more here but she still did it greatly and we continued on to the next part of the course. The next few jumps were a breeze and we were making great time, although when we hit the water she did spook a little and overjump on the first water jump. However Alaska did a great job of refocusing and managed to get through the water and we finished the course in a great time for us! Mint Meadows' cross country course was a blast! This was a great change of scenery and lots of fun, I'll definitely be bringing back another horse or two over the next few weeks, thanks again @minty-meadxws! - - - Alaska: @retro-mushroom Backgrounds: @minty-meadxws Rider Base: @MythtopianPegasus Tack + Rider Adjustments: @Stxrry-Nightz- - - -
