Our trails climb to about 9,000 feet on the Continental Divide. They are mostly two-track and single track, with minimal roads. Footing is good overall, but there are rocks. Hoof protection is strongly recommended. Be prepared for all weather.
Ride Camp
Camp is located in a gorgeous meadow on Alex Draw, at an elevation of approximately 6,500 feet. There are very few services available in the nearby town of Spencer, Idaho, so please plan accordingly.
Certified weed free hay is required. The nearest farm stores are in Idaho Falls (if coming from the south) or Dillon (if coming from Montana).
Horse water and porta-potties will be provided. Please bring people water. Dogs must be leashed at all times.
schedule
An initial ride meeting will be held the evening before Day 1.
Ride times will be posted as the event nears.
Non-competitive trail riders may start anytime after the 25/30-mile riders leave. Please check out with ride management before you depart.
meals
Dinners will be provided for riders on the days they ride. Non-riders may eat for $10 per person.
