I'm pretty sure that this year, there were only three. Yes, but interestingly on Tevis it felt to me like there were sooo many stops :) It's all perception. I do like the hour stops cause you feel like you can really rest and the horse can really eat. CC

3 or 4 stops, totaling 3 or 4 hours? Wow, that cuts out more riding time than the Tevis, there are only 2 one hour holds on Tevis. All the other stops (like 8 or 9) are more like gate and go.
Is that correct, 3 or 4 hours hold time, so riders might have only 20 hours to complete the BH 100?

Marsh, The vet checks on the BH 100 vary somewhat from year to year depending on the weather, the location of the basecamp and the direction the ride is being run, clockwise vs. counterclockwise. That said, typically the BH has only three or four stops of one hour each. Cindy
