Hiplains Walkers was first created so all could view online in 1998!
Grace started riding walkers when she was 10 years old. Her mother
had purchased Silvertip Rickey, a line bred Last Chance stallion,
when Grace was 8. Rickey was so athletic and smooth with so much
stamina. Grace was away from horses while she was raising her
children. Once she was able to get back into horses again she wanted
walkers. She had ridden different breeds and learned to ride as a
child on a retired race horse. Lyle was not at all enthused about
riding until he rode Tegun's Mt. Fawn. He enjoyed her smooth gait and
spirit and now loves to ride. His previous experience had been with
work horses and a few of their neighbor's saddle horses.
High Plains Walkers is located in Eastern Montana. Initially Lyle &
Grace offered their own walkers for sale. After a number of people
asked for help in selling their walkers High Plains started offering
a sales service. Now they advertise Tennessee Walkers and many
different breeds for others and raise a few foals. GLL's Sun Chief
and Goldust Royal Trigger stand at stud to a limited number of mares.
High Plains no longer offers shipped semen.
Grace enjoys pedigree research and is knowledgeable of the bloodlines
of many different breeds. She designs ads for those who want to sell
their horse or horses and can help them describe their horse's
breeding,disciplines,and potential.

In Loving Memory of Robin Rae Bach
Robin Rae Bach beloved daughter of Grace
Larson passed away February 19, 2006. Robin was born October 2, 1964.
She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis at age 26 in 1990. The above
photo was taken in 1984 when Robin was 20, and before MS started
destroying her body. To learn more about MS please go to

It's estimated that 2.5 million people world wide have MS. Two Hundred
more people will be diagnosed with MS every week." That means that every
hour of every day someone will have their life interrupted by this
devastating disease.

Looking back hind sight is always better. I am sure Robin had MS
when she was in Elementary School. She had difficulty with
comprehension and she'd drop things plus her balance wasn't the best at
times. When she was 16 she was admitted to the hospital and the doctors
weren't able to diagnose what was wrong. Robin found out 10 years later
that it was an MS attack. That is when she was finally diagnosed with
MS.
