questions in the title, heres the list of fences i've thought up so far.....

1. 'ditch' using tarpaulin and 2 poles
2. coffin fence using ditch as above
3. corner fences
4. arrowheads

any other suggestions?
basically i want to get my horse to jump anything as well as practising for when we go XC so when we see funny-looking fences at a show she's not bothered.
 
BArrels are good skinnies. You can start with one on its side, then build up to three next to each other, then 2, then a single one with a skinny pole ontop

also then you could have

a corner 3 strides to the dog legs thing on a curve. it is quite difficult!!

we did it last night at a pc rally. to make it even harder you can have the pole at a really acute angle
