Foxhunting is the traditional sport of mounted riders chasing wild quarry with a pack of hounds. Founded in 1883, Radnor Hunt is the oldest continuously active foxhunt in the United States. During this exhibition, members of the hunt will demonstrate some of the skills they use in the hunt field, including navigating a horse through a pack of hounds, dealing with trappy terrain, and riding as a group.
