Traditonally, they traveled by horse. In more recent years, they're more commonly seen in motor vehicles, although horses are still used, as they are often capable of getting to places which are inaccessible to motor vehicles.

"Mounted" can be in reference to any animal, vehicle, or apparatus which is used for transport - it's not just restricted to horses. So the term mounted is still applicable to this day, and anyone traveling by a means other than foot travel is mounted in that respect.
