#EventerProblems, Vol. 69: So. Much. Stuff.

Eventers require roughly three times as much clothing and gear as our hunter/jumper and dressage brethren. It’s a lot to keep up with, and when it comes to packing… #EventerProblems.

This is what packing for a show looks like when a) you have 3 phases b) you’re a pack rat. #backontrackusa #charlesowen #nobleoutfitters #decopony #majykequipe #samshield #eventerproblems #horseshow A photo posted by @the900facebookpony on Apr 21, 2016 at 2:23pm PDT

You might be an eventer if… Your favorite canteen rattles in your drink holder, so naturally you vet wrap it. #eventerproblems #vetwrapallthethings #yesitsmycolors A photo posted by Elena Sloop-Wildes (@wildsloop) on Apr 21, 2016 at 6:58pm PDT

The comment on this part of my test was “problems” with a score of 3. #eventerproblems A video posted by Koda And Reilly (@rk_eventing) on Apr 20, 2016 at 6:37pm PDT

I had 3 goals for today. One was to finish, second was not to die, and the last one was to get at least one 7 on my dressage test and Buddy got a 7.5 on the halt lol. So we completed our mission for today!! #soexcited #eventerproblems #eventinglife

If, by chance, your horse jumps the first fence on course with his eyes closed, he may be so surprised that you’re in stadium that he biffs the second one. #ottb #notoriousottb #eventerproblems A photo posted by Nicole Sharpe (@nicolegizelle) on Apr 17, 2016 at 10:48pm PDT

That’s ok, it’s not like I need to ride this week before we leave Friday… #eventerproblems #eventing #nothowiwantedtomoveup #novice #usea #hollyhillhorsetrials

I’m laid up from shoulder surgery but my horses are doing their own gallop sets to stay in shape. #eventerproblems

Everything was good until we ran into the 4th fence #eventerproblems — Baby Eventer (@BabyEventer) April 18, 2016
