Horse Professionals using The Trapper Creek Ranch for Training & Clinics
Marijn Werquin
We have mentioned Marijn multiple times elsewhere on this website. You can also read more about her at www.thehideout.com. Marijn is one of the owners of The Hideout Lodge & Guest Ranch and The Trapper Creek Ranch. She leads and manages the horse program, clinics and wranglers at The Hideout. Over the years, she has taken thousands of riders of all levels from beginners to very advanced on scenic rides, extreme trail riding and working cattle on the range and in the arena. Marijn gives weekly liberty & horsemanship demonstrations and uses The Trapper Creek Ranch arenas to work with those guests who desire to learn more.
She spends on average around 1,100 hours in the saddle and as many on foot playing at liberty and doing groundwork with her horses. Marijn and Ramon also give weeklong horsemanship clinics to small groups of guests during the off-season.
Ramon Castro
Long time horseman and vaquero Ramon Castro, who trains most of the horses at The Hideout, also uses The Trapper Creek Ranch and The Hideout infrastructure to start horses, fine tune horses and finish horses. Ramon also trains horses for third parties and shoes all the horses at The Hideout and Trapper Creek Ranch. Ramon is also a very seasoned stockman.
