I'm not into horses at all, more of a dairy cow and equipment guy, but I have no idea why this channel doesn't have way more subscribers. Great dude and awesome story! I'll be tuning in for every video! Jake I'll be praying that you have a safe trip for you and your horses and the trip succeeds in meeting your goals.
share to all of your social media~ Like and comment on every post helps too
Oh he will get follwers
All of us old cowboys dreamed of doing this as kids. God bless you and your horses. You've put in the education and work needed. Now it's time to execute the journey. I'll be following along.
Praying for you and your horses, for safety, health and for more folks along your route to see and hear about your journey and offer you guys a place to stay! Wow , just seeing the people who have reached out to you so far restores faith in the goodness of the American people!!!
AMEN to Americas country hospitality 🐴🐴🐴
Thanks for your kind words and prayers. So much goodness and generosity has been shown to me, a stranger, by so many people that I can hardly believe it and am overwhelmed with gratitude. Thanks for your support!
I'm putting together a string now... mustang gelding two smaller mules... see you on the trail... somewhere
Much love from McDermitt Oregon
Good luck! I'll hit the trail one day too.
That's awesome. Mankind needs to get back to that kind of travel

Comment not for the algorithm: Thanks for the support, thanks for watching, and thanks for knowing how RUclips works! You rock and your comment made me smile.
I look forward to watching these updates!
This is so underrated! What you are doing is legendary!
Thank you for sharing your journey and demonstrating the adventurous and persevering spirit of those who settled this great nation! God bless!
Your meal, in our house we call that pastylicious! Really enjoying your vids, thanks.
well, it was definitley pasty. LOL!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful journey with us!! Love the fact that you are using the Mustangs! They are very endurance capable! I always wanted one, but never got to have one. Such beautiful horses! Stay strong and safe in your journey! Listen to your body and your horses and you will make your full journey no matter what the time is supposed to be. A few extra days will be welcomed in the end ❤ stay safe out there!
So much beautiful scenery caught in this video. I’m glad you made it down safely from the coiffed area and Eddie’s legs are okay after the hole. I’m looking forward to next week’s video.
What an outstanding, adventurous journey! You certainly will not miss any wonderous sights, at this leisurely pace. The bond you develop with these 3 beautiful creatures will be priceless. Enjoy these travel moments, in the future, all will be an amazing memory.
Well put😊
Thanks for the encouraging words! With all the kind, generous people who have helped me so far, it already is an amazing memory.
Keeping you and your equine companions in my prayers for a safe journey. Look forward to your trek thru South Dakota next year.
All prayers accepted and appreciated. Thanks for the support!
Well friend, every cross country ride is an adventure. Be safe.
🙂 Hi Jake, thanks for another video update. 35 miles about equals my longest distance day travelling horseback. But you do a great job pace wise. I know I don't have to you that though. You know. I'll catch you on the next one, keep it up...... Eric
Old Santa Fe Trail soon.
💭 Bernice Ende--> Starting at age 50 she solo rode over 30,000 miles across the U.S., Canada & Europe. "Lady Longrider" is her book. There's a documentary film about her incredible life too.
Did she ride the same horse the entire journey?
@nicolaxoxo1 Her first ride she borrowed a horse from the ranch she worked for. Bernice was usually really strapped for $, so she bought cheap "problem" horses. She was a horse trainer & had ferring skills, so she knew how to get a horse ready for long rides & maintain their feet on trail. (She did her own shoeing on her long rides.)
Bernice lost one of her horses when she was riding through Texas ( Her pack horse fatally kicked her riding horse & she had to put the mare down. Then she started walking with her pack horse back to her home state of Montana, when a Texas rancher gave her a gelding. This horse had issues that she had to correct, but she put several hundred miles on this paint before retiring him.)
Her final 3 horses were Fjords which she grew to really love. She said this breed was ideal for long distance riding, & she wouldn't go back to any other horse breed. A Fjord breeder stopped her on one of her rides & liked what she was all about & gave her her first Fjord mare.
There's a good documentary film that was made about Bernice Ende, " Lady Long Rider" I believe is the title. ( Correct title by Wren Winfield, Prime Video has this film.) Unfortunately, Bernice only wrote one autobiographical book before her death, but it's definitely worth reading--> " Lady Long Rider."
Ende is a real inspirational shero for anyone thinking about going after a late in life "goofy" dream.
Amazing! I look forward to these videos every week!! Thanks you for taking us along for the journey!
Your're welcome and thanks for coming along!
So glad you are doing well and the horses too. Nice that you have friends to help you along the way. God Bless, Jake. Hugs
Thanks for all these awesome videos! I love what you're doing for the mustangs and am grateful you're taking us all along on the adventure of a lifetime!
Thank you so much for your support. It means a lot!
Reminds me of a guy I met in Glenwood NM. He was riding from the Artic circle to Mexico to raise money for a orphanage. He was in his 60's and it the second time he was making the trip
Wow😮
Love seeing your adventures! It's also Awesome to see how you and your horse's needs are being met. God's speed!
You’ve inspired me. Stop by. I’m at 36819 n 15 ave Phoenix, AZ. I’ve had some tuff times and had to get rid of one of my horses when my wife and I divorced. Then I had to put down my other horse, Red. Well as of today we are dating again with our three kids and our life has been restored. Now on our dream ranch. I will be making two stalls and my dream is to get two horses again. Mustangs are now the ones I’m going to get based on your journey!!! 🎉 stop by for a night stay and good food my family and my parents will cook dinner.
I have a great friend in Lupton AZ that would welcome you for a night.
So glad your life has turned around in such a good way and I wish the best for your family's future. I'm so happy if I was able to show you what amazing horses mustangs are and I'm sure you will not regret adopting one or two. I won't be gong through AZ but thanks for the offer and best of luck!
Your horses are very aware of their surroundings but will go there because they believe in you & that you would never let them come to harm❤️
Hi Jake! I wanted to congratulate you on the three page write-up in Deseret News/the Digest! It was GREAT. The story of course is all about you and the year of the Mustangs. Love your latest post! Stay strong and true. Happy Thanksgiving Week!
Enjoying watching your adventure.
Appreciate all that you are able to put into your videos. You are going to end up becoming a master storyteller!
You are one tuff guy to do this during these colder months! Enjoying your videos! Thanks for sharing! At one point in my life I wanted to ride the Santa Fe trail. Wasn't able to. So your ride gives me a bit of satisfaction. Prayers to you and the horses for safe travels! Nina in Colorful Colorado USA 🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤
Way to make it through a hard day and recognizing the need for a day off! Love your journey!
Thanks for sharing your adventures all the best for you and your horse's
Thanks for sharing the details about the panniers. All the little details are really interesting.
Love watching your journey
I love watching your adventure and think that the people you are meeting along the the way, show hope that humanity isn’t lost! Safe travels and look forward to your next video
Love watching your journey progress. As always, the vistas are beautiful. Thank you for those and for the explanation of how things are going. All the best to you!
I just found your channel. It’s so wonderful to see someone living my dream. Like everyone else, life got in the way and now that I’m in a wheelchair (horrific trucking accident) that dream has been put on the shelf. However, that’s ok. I now enjoy watching everyone else’s adventures here on RUclips 😊❤. I can’t wait to see the next video. May the good Lord watch over you and your horses for safe journeys.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support. I love your positive attitude and while our journeys may be different, I know the Lord is watching over both of us.
Pozdrowienia z Polski👍
I will pray for your success on your journey .God bless and keep you and your horses.(Keep warm )
Jake - you know I'm praying for you!
It's working so thank you!
Ft. Worth Texas is listening and watching. I envy you, and Enjoying your Travels.
You're doing a terrific job getting your channel going. I look forward to every post. I was wondering about borium use but am only familiar with torch application and I guess you would have to use screw-in studs. Your horses are probably pretty sure footed anyway but I had to ask. Do you carry a stall jack to shape and level shoes? Thanks for the entertainment! Btw, I'm 71 if you are wondering about your audience. I only shod horses full time for 10 years but respect the trade.
Keep it up…true test for the canvas cutter these next few months 👊🏻
Yep, the true test is still to come but so far I'm loving it! Thanks for watching.
yay.. way to sport your Impact of the horse hat!
Excellent update!!! Keep safe and looking forward to more videos!
Love watching your videos! Awesome scenery! Maybe you could acquire some hoof boots in the event of a lost shoe(s)? Easycare makes a wide variety of them. Looking forward to the next one 🤠
You're doing such a good job! You deserve the weekend off! 🥰
Thanks!
Thanks you so much! That was very kind and I appreciate your support!
Hello from Nevada, home to many, many mustangs.
Both Bella and Denver were born in Nevada so your state. and the wild horses there, will always have a special place in my heart. Thanks for watching!
Love the video as usual. Great scenery 👌. What a wonderful journey you are on... I'm so jealous 🤠. Im so happy you're being welcomed by so many kind-hearted people showing you hospitality❤. I keep you and your horse's in prayer. Looking forward to next Saturday video 😊
All prayers accepted and appreciated. Thanks for the support!
In an emergency situation as you spoke of in the video where you had to turn and backtrack, im sure a rancher would understand your dilemma.
Jake how are you keeping horses feed other than grazing winter grass
good for you! Such a wonderful journey. Best of good fortune for all of you.
This is the third time I watch this series….
Most amazing channel ever…..
Great job Jake!
I hope your experience east of the Mississippi is better than the one I had.
That cowboy mash looked 👌 🤤 Just discovered your channel and going to follow you on your journey. Safe travels!
Every video is so interesting and I always learn something. Keep them coming.
Happy Thanksgiving Jake!
Super awesome. Just started watching your journey. God bless you, my friend.
Where you at brother!! Happy thanksgiving!! When you come through Oklahoma let us know if you need anything! You have to let us know what’s happening! We’re worried about you!!
Makes me wish cars were never invented.. good luck!!
Hope horses are young 😊
Get some solar bicycle lights and reflective tape so cars can see you, safer for everyone
that still looses like so mosh fun
We ran in to you in chama good luck bro
We had friends call to tell us you were in the area (Durango/Bayfield) would have loved to meet you! Such an inspiring journey, keep sharing. Safe and happy trails! ❤
❤those instant mashed potatoes….try the pepper jack cheese flavor. Don’t taste like instant, they are good
I love pepper jack cheese so I'll definitely look for that next time i resupply. Thanks for the tip!
@@jakeharvath is there any place you list an address along your route so folks could send a care package? Or is it better to send a gift card? I appreciate your genuine care for your horses and your mission to promote the mustangs. I don’t know if anyone told you but you were recently mentioned on an episode of an equestrian RUclipsr with a big following, channel named Raleigh Link.
Earlier this year there was a jackass going by 2Raw2Ride (I know sounds like a porn movie lol) who bought an out of shape inappropriately prepared gaited horse off Craigslist for a few thousand dollars and with no prep started on a long distance ride. He did not properly feed or care for the horse and it rapidly deteriorated. He somehow got a second horse to pack….it was 20. Needless to say, also a disaster. He Colicked along the way and somehow didn’t die but was lame and skeletal. By the end of a few months he was eluding law enforcement officers because so many people were reporting the deplorable conditions of the 2 horses. He cheated by trailering a lot of the way. At the end he had the nerve to try to sell these 2 lame starved horses for 60k!! No one knows what became of them as far as I know.
Anyway, it’s nothing like what you are doing with your horses but just in case you hear any negativity about your journey, unfortunately this jerk gave the general public a terrible impression of long distance riding.
I wish you much success on your journey, I guess you aren’t going thru Florida?
@@nicolaxoxo1 no, not going through Florida although I've been there to go scuba diving and it's a beautiful state. There is no way to send me a care package but thanks so much for the thought. Same thing with gift cards. If you want to help support Year Of The Mustang the best way to do that is just to make a donation. You can donate by clicking the "thanks" button right below the video (next to the share button). You can also go to my GoFundMe at gofund.me/b536929c. Donations are very appreciated but either way, thanks so much for your support and thanks for watching!
@@jakeharvathwill do….which one takes the most fees out of the donation ? You’re lucky not to be coming here to Florida, too darn hot and built up in many areas
RUclips doesn't take any fees if you donate using the THANKS button below the video. @@nicolaxoxo1
Happy Thanksgiving Jake!
Are you completely mapped out for the route? Or are some days winging it? You are an inspiration Sir! Chama is an awesome memory for me! Edit: question answered winging it sometimes!
I am completely mapped out for my route but sometimes maps don't tell the whole story and that's when I "wing it". Or in this case, backtrack. As I hit winter I'm sure weather will also have a thing or two to say about my route. Thanks for watching!
@@jakeharvath Is every person you stay with planned as well? That is what I was referring to. Wasn't direct enough!
Thanks ! Tenacity is a great gift BTW!!You wear it well!
@@jamesclark9347 No, everyone one I've stayed with so far was a stranger before I got to that area. I've had people come up to me as I'm passing through and offer a place and most of the time they start calling friends they know further down my route and get me set up with another place and then that person calls a friend and so on and so on. Twice I've gone up to ranches and knocked on the door of the house and asked if I could borrow thier field for the night and both said yes. The rest of the time, especially when I've been up in the mountains, I'm just camping by myself and the horses are picketed. The kindness and generosity so many people have shown me, a complete stranger, has been amazing and inspiring!
@@jakeharvath Thank you for answering my question. Such a worthy journey ! Mustangs get treated poorly by our government!
h0wdy frm grand juncti0n.
😎🤙
Would u be coming thur any part of Montana. Just wondering as I would like to meet ya n mb buy u lunch if so. I'm close to Billings 9 west. Love watching ur videos. I watch em while I was in the hospital after having my 6th back surgery.
Very kind of you to offer. I am going through the southern part of Montana but not until next summer. Thanks for the support!
@jakeharvath
I would still like to buy u lunch anyway n to meet ur 3 beautiful mustangs anyway. There are a few small towns near me that has nice small restaurants. Just to say I'm only bout 60 miles north of the Wyo state line. Anyway Jake still would love to meet u n ur mustangs. Even buy ur horses a few snacks also.
Wishing u a very happy n a safe Thanksgiving. God bless in what u r doing to really get the word out about the amazing wild mustangs held in holding pens, as there r so so so many wild mustangs not being able to still run wild in their homelands .
Looking good Jake~! how much time do you spend talking to your horses?
You are welcome to rest here at my house in PA if you pass by this way, aloha~ I am fixing to go on a similar long ride horse journey~
So about how much does all of your gear weigh? When it was sitting on the ground it certainly looked like a lot. Also I am curious how much cell service you have during the daytime when you are on the road. One more question, has the vehicle traffic nearby you been reasonable. Some drivers can be so careless. Stay safe!
Jake how often does the horses need to drink water and feed? Do you let them graze or do you bring some special snacks for the horses?
I know nothing about horses.
But why do you ride in the asphalt on the highways and not the grass area?
I think what your doing is incredibly!
Prayers for safe travels. I’m in Arkansas about an hour drive south of your projected route through ar. Just curious if you had any idea when you might get into Arkansas?
I have a particular ambition to travel across country on horseback. A quick you tube search only provided this evidence that such a venture is passible. Are there any tips you have to start an adventure like that?
Why can't we donate money or superchats?😇💜🙏
You can and thanks so much for wanting to help. I just turned this feature on so you can now donate by clicking the "thanks" button right below the video (next to the share button). You can also go to my GoFundMe at gofund.me/b536929c. Thanks again for your support and thanks for watching!
Thanks!
You're welcome God bless, you
