Beautiful fun marked course with tailgating and shopping! Trailer parking re-located this year to be closer to tailgate and Grey Horse Saddlery vendor tents.
Riders start on course sometime between 11 am and 1 pm and follow approximately 5-mile marked trail
through rolling terrain -- a mix of open fields and woods with some small creek crossings, stunning views and 15+ optional jumps all 3’ or less, many under 28”.
All Riding Disciplines welcome! Convenient location close to I-81 exit 200 or 205.
The teams that are closest to the optimum time will win ribbons through the top six places.
Ribbons awarded to two riders (three can ride, but only two ribbons).
Divisions:
Full Cry/first flight (mix of walk/trot/canter, jumping)
Second Flight (slower pace, jumps optional)
Hilltoppers (slowest pace, jumps optional)
Juniors: One rider on the team must be under 18
Non-compete, just for fun!
