Proud of this crew! Lots of progress was made by all. It was a hot one but everyone stuck it out and gave it their all.
Our beautiful girl, MD STARSTRUCK, checked in foal this morning to HANG TIME. We are praying for a strong, healthy, trotting little babe. And maybe to break our c**t streak!🎀🐴

We are working on adding a barn day or two before kiddos head back to school. One more camp for our older group of kids in a couple of weeks so stay tuned for an August date(s) and sign up!
It’s been a couple of years since we’ve had any RCS foals, so what better way to make up for it than a 𝐁𝐈𝐆 2025 foaling season. Looking forward to sleepless nights of foal watch and future national champs. Stay tuned for our crosses as mares check in foal!
Happy 4th of July from Rugged Cross Stables! 🇺🇸
As we celebrate this day of freedom and independence, we want to thank all our wonderful clients, friends, and community members for their support. Here's to the red, white, and blue, and to the freedom to ride under the open sky.
May your day be filled with joy, laughter, and plenty of time with family, friends, and of course, your favorite horses!
Stay safe and enjoy your day! 🎆
Reminder, there are no riding lessons July 3rd through the 7th. We’ve had a jam packed schedule between shows, camps, and lessons so this is a very well deserved break for not only our staff but also our hard working horses. Have a safe Fourth of July weekend!🇺🇸
SESDHSA Lennox Open Show yesterday! Beautiful weather and a lovely facility.
mornings like these are good for the soul🫶🏻
In addition to camp this week, we’ve been busy getting a few 4H kids qualified for state🍀 We attended the Minnehaha County show on Monday and the Lake County show this evening! Lots of purple ribbons💜

Thank you, Lord for all the moisture this spring after many seasons of drought. Thankful for this slice of heaven and all that it provides for our animals as well as our community. #rcs #ruggedcrossstables #rideruggedcross #springtime #thelordisgood #thelordisgoodallthetime

And with that, the 2023 season comes to an end✨ Wow! We tend to forget to sit back and look at all that’s been achieved…lessons taught, horses trained, but most importantly, LIVES changed. When you are in the everyday guts of running a business, you don’t tend to take a step back, you just keep chiseling away with your head down so we love to sit down and review the year together. First and foremost, we could not do what we do without our incredible employees and clients..and let’s not forget these amazing animals we get to work with. We introduced a new unmounted horsemanship program, Equine Empower, into our offerings as well as expanded our summer camps, increasing lesson clientele as we transitioned to online scheduling, made numerous upgrades to our facility, hosted our first barn hang out day, and took on our first full time employee. This doesn’t even scratch the surface of our year’s highlights. Whew, we are tired but our hearts have never been more full. The stats are in: ⭐️1,547 riding lessons taught ⭐️238 lesson students ⭐️38 summer campers ⭐️18 equine empower students Many blessings as we head into 2024! We are looking forward to continual growth and even more lives impacted. Happy New Year! ~Tyler & Courtney
⭐️⭐️Happy Retirement, Icecube!⭐️⭐️ Lots of tears this past week as we prepared to sent our very favorite, Icecube back to his family to enjoy a MUCH deserved retirement. We’ve gotten to love on Icecube the last nearly three years in our lesson program at RCS. In that time, he taught hundreds of kids to ride, be confident, and what true friendship is. A million thanks would never be enough to the Mutchler family. Icecube, enjoy endless round bales and all the treats in retirement. From every single instructor, student, camper, birthday kid that has set foot at Rugged Cross….WE LOVE YOU🤍 If you are a past or current RCS student and have a photo with Icecube, please share it below👇🏻we want to see all the people that he has impacted! #rcs #rideruggedcross #ruggedcrossstables #horserridinglessons #ridinglesson #riding #happyhorses #equinelife #smallbusiness #southdakota #horseretirement #horseretirment #horseretirementlife

Another wonderful week of lessons in the books! We sure did enjoy the break from the cold this weekend. Who would guess this guy turns 29 this year?! The Mutchler Family graciously lets us use IceCube for lessons and we really couldn’t be more blessed to have such a sweet old man that takes his retirement gig so serious.
