Cowboy Curling

Occurred on March 12, 2022 / Blairmore, Alberta, Canada

: This was an event at the Skijoring competition held in Blairmore, AB. Skijoring is a timed event of pulling a skier by horse around a set track with obstacles and jumps. Cowboy curling was held during the intermission of the Skijoring races. My friend Alma and her horse Baxter are pulling Trevor on the tube. Cowboy curling is won by having the tube closest of 5 teams to the center dot just like regular curling. The horse and rider run from the starting point to where the traffic cones are. The tube rider has to let go of the rope at the traffic cone. The horse and rider veer off and the tube carries on trying to get closest to the center dot spray painted on the snow. Alma and Trevor won this round.
