The Gold Country Endurance Ride 30/50 is being held
August 10th in the beautiful El Dorado National Forest in Georgetown,
Calif. As usual, base camp will be at the Dru Barner Park. This is a
large. wooded, secluded camping area easily accessed by paved
roads.
The Club has made some exciting new changes to the
ride. Lunch will be back at base camp instead of out on the trail.
Also, this year's event will include a 20 mile Ride and Tie. The first
loop of the ride will be a 30 mile loop. This is safe trail (no
cliffs) consisting of forest road and single track trail through the dense
forest. (Lots of shade) The Ride and Tie and the 2nd loop for the
50's will be mostly forest road and then single track trail winding back to
camp.
The vet checks will provide plenty of water, hay,
bran mash, carrots, apples for the horses and snacks and drinks for the
riders.
As usual, an experienced team of endurance
veterinarians, headed by Bob Morgan from Loomis Basin will be there to assist
riders and their horses.
Come join us for a fantastic ride and a great BBQ
after you finish.
For more information, check the ride calendar for
contacts.
Thank you,
Karin Occhialini
