BLUE CREEK BEDROLLS Blue creek bedrolls are made with a canvas upper and waterproof NRV bottom (choice of color). The bottom extends 24 inches beyond the top to keep items at the head end off of the ground. Bedroll covers are important for horse campers. They keep your sleeping bag protected, clean and dry while traveling and while in use. They add a good amount of warmth on cold nights. Blue creek bedrolls are 34×88 and roll up into perfect size cylinders for packing. Add a foam or thermarest for comfort. Great for quad or boat travel as well. Tie straps are at the head and allow you to let air out of a thermarest as it is being rolled up. Marine duck top. Waterproof bottom. Top is slightly billowed to allow for more free movement. Standard or Lite. Lite recommended for those who want to keep top loads a few pounds lighter. https://www.bcoutfitter.com/product/bedroll/

The quick release knot versus the get away hitch. Check out our heavy duty lead rope in our on line store. https://www.bcoutfitter.com/product/trail-lead/

Blue Creek hobbles. The outfitter chain hobble and the biothane hobble. Both are super gentle on the horses feet and will last you a very long time. They are easy to lock, and fit around any horse neck so they never get lost.

Blue Creek Horses!! Calm, cool and collected.😉
