The RCMP Musical Ride was performed Saturday and Sunday in Whitehorse. The show has roots dating back to the 1870s. In those days, mounted police officers were still trained in cavalry techniques such as using spears. The ride features 32 horses and officers in Red Serge. This year the musical ride was brought coast to coast as part of Canada 150. In a rare occurrence it's next headed to Skagway, Alaska. | CBC Yukon

Each year the RCMP Musical Ride awes cities across Canada. But co-ordinating a cross-country trip with 45 people and 36 horses is no easy task. Watch how they get from town to town. Check out if the Musical Ride will be in a town near you! http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/even/en/t/2/e?fb | Royal Canadian Mounted Police
