[RC] Bighorn 100 - Ridecamp Guest

==========================================

I do know the Bighorn trail well & don't personally care how it is marked, or 
if it is marked - the maps this year were excellent & the trail had 90 miles of 
first class marking - the blinking red night lights were GREAT!   There were a 
few miles that were not marked; & yes, some years it is a bit of an orienting 
experience, but.. this one ride still embodies the essence of endurance to me - 
a true cross country course that actually GOES SOMEWHERE while most rides now 
are road loops back thru a central point 3, 4, 5 times.  I love the thrill of a 
horse pulling at end of a tough 100 miles because they KNOW they are taking you 
home.  I love the solitude & space of a ride without hundreds of people 
fighting for trail space.  I truly appreciate every effort the Bighorn folks 
take to ensure a great ride & if it is a bit of a challange - at least it is 
over world class country with safe trails and I want to THANK THEM ALL for 
their efforts in putting on a REAL 100 mile ride !! ~ joyce anderson, Bighorn
