Coming soon · Built by the people who ride it
Ridden, and written down by the people who went — so the trip you keep putting off stops being a gamble.
Why you'd want in
We all do the research — forum threads, old blog posts, an agency page nobody has touched in years. Then you get there and the gate's locked, the creek's dry, or there's nowhere to turn a rig around.
And the part that actually decides the trip is rarely written down anywhere: whether the rig fits at the other end, whether there's still water in August, where you'd sleep, or who you'd call if a shoe came off two hundred miles from home.
So the good trips stay on the list, year after year. Outrider makes the trip you've always dreamed of taking that much easier — enough in your pocket to feel good about going, and people to go with.
Four parts, one community
OUTRIDER
Trails with the details that actually matter. Plan a ride or post a clinic, send one link, and people come.

OUTBOUND
Map the road trip, drop in your Outposts and trailheads, and know what every state you cross wants to see.

Company
Plan a ride and send one link. Your people see the trail, the parking, the water and the date — and tap once to say they're coming.
Or join one somebody else is running, and go out with people who already know the ground.
Who's behind it
I grew up on a ranch where horses weren't just a hobby — they were part of everyday life. That love for the trail has followed me everywhere.
I spent 13 years serving in the U.S. Army, finishing my military career as a helicopter pilot. Flying taught me to think differently about navigation, planning, risk management, and making complex information simple and useful. Those lessons became the foundation for Outrider.
The truth is, I didn't set out to build a business.
After years of hauling horses across the West — and even traveling across the country and back — I was constantly piecing together information from dozens of different places. Trail conditions, trailer parking, water access, camping, ride planning, and local knowledge were scattered everywhere. I wanted one place that could do it all.
When I retired from the Army in April, I decided to stop waiting for someone else to build it. I taught myself the fundamentals of coding and started creating Outrider from the ground up.
Today, Outrider is built around the same principles that made me a pilot: plan ahead, stay informed, and make good decisions with confidence. I like to think of it as an aviation-level planning tool for horse people — bringing trails, navigation, logistics, and community together in one place so you can spend less time planning and more time riding.
At the end of the day, I'm still just a horse girl who loves exploring new places with my horses. If Outrider makes your next adventure a little easier, then it's doing exactly what I hoped it would.
Come along
Founding riders keep Outposts at $49 a year for life — everyone after the first 250 pays $99. Founding hosts are the whole map on day one. Both close at a number, not a date.
