Welcome to the Back Country Horsemen of Oregon. BCHO is a group of local men and women dedicated to the preservation of our right to the common sense use and enjoyment of pack and saddle stock in Oregon's wilderness and backcountry.
The Back Country Horsemen of Oregon includes 10 local chapters, with over 400 members, throughout Oregon and is one of 21 recognized State Organizations of Back Country Horsemen of America. We promote and teach Leave No Trace ethotics (LNT) and lobby for continued access of pack and saddle stock in Oregon's wilderness and backcountry. BCHO is the state affiliate to the Back Country Horsemen of America.
This web site provides a glimpse of some of the activities and dedicated work that goes into keeping the backcountry open so that everyone may enjoy it.
"If once in a while, a man has the opportunity to flee the city, throw a diamond hitch upon a mule, and disappear into the wilderness of the covered wagon days, he is just that much more civilized than he would be without the opportunity." - Aldo Leopold
