Empowering Lives Through the Power of Horses
Discover the emotional, psychological and physical benefits of equine therapy.
Services Designed to Strengthen, Empower and Heal
Our Mission
5 Ranges Phoenix Stables is a new equine therapy facility in southeastern Utah dedicated to providing free services to children and adults seeking ways to prevent and overcome addiction and address mental, emotional, and physical challenges. Drawing on years of equine experience, we believe deeply in the transformative power of horse-assisted therapy.
RideUtah!
In cooperation with the Blanding USU Extension office and Dr. Karl Hoopes, the founder of RideUtah!, 5 Ranges Phoenix Stables is offering trail rides for military veterans and guests/family members at no charge. Located in the heart of southeastern Utah, our facility serves individuals and groups from nearby communities, including Navajo and Ute tribal members. Our inaugural ride took place in June and in partnership with USU and RideUtah! we are scheduling regular rides on a weekly or twice-monthly basis that will accommodate up to 10 riders at a time.
To make these rides possible in remote San Juan, we provides the horses, guides, meeting and picnic facilities and trails on private land for these experiences at no charge to the veterans or the USU Extension program. We receive no monetary support from RideUtah!.
Set in rural southeastern Utah we offer unique services that support veterans and other individuals for whom clinical approaches are unavailable, unaffordable or have proven ineffective. As a partner of RideUtah!, we are "harnessing Utah’s natural beauty and resources into a successful program. Participants report that the rides are relaxing, enjoyable, increase resilience, and are a good opportunity to connect with others who share similar experiences."
