Principles of Light On The Land

Light On The Land is the Back Country Horsemen of America educational platform of ACTIONS and ETHICS to perpetuate the common-sense use of saddle and pack stock and encourages the wise and sustainable use and enjoyment on our public lands.  With over 50 years of knowledge and experience within BCHA, Light On The Land harnesses those best practices to compile a comprehensive platform of resources specific to stock use in the wilderness, back country, and front country.  These resources can be accessed and shared efficiently, practically, and free of charge to all BCHA members and the general public. 

BCHCO uses Light On The Land principles.
