After the AGM business and open forum, we will be hearing from Judith Barker about her experiences with, and her observations of, the lifestyle, management, behaviour and history of the horses of Mongolia. Judith has been on four trips to Mongolia, including one research expedition with Col John Blashford Snell, CBE, in which she reported to the Royal Geographical Society on the native horses of Mongolia – their lifestyle in the extensive terrain, and management by the Mongolian herdsmen who depend on them for their existence. Judith has just returned from an adventure incorporating riding, the Ice Festival and Reindeer people.
