Event Details

All riders will be asked to vote for their favorite judge at end of event. 

Saturday

In Hand (IH) – a dismounted event in an arena/field, halter and lead rope preferred. All equines welcome – any size, breed, and age.

Trail Challenge (TC) – a relaxing trail ride with judged obstacles along the trail and possibly in camp. All riding disciplines are welcome.

The Terrain

 Easy terrain.  Shoes not necessary unless horse tender footed.   

Sandy arena (not located at the camping venue - but will be used during the trail challenges). In-hand course is near camping area and barefoot friendly. This is a new venue so some weeds will be evident until course is broken in. 

The trail has some rock throughout. The trail goes along a golf course, a disc golf course, and along the Crooked River rim. Great views of the river and mountains. 

Meals

Bring own water for horses and own people food

  2. Take a Left on Lower Bridge Road (just to the N of town)
  3. Take a Right on 43rd
  4. When you get to the end take a Left on Chinook. Follow Chinook down into the canyon
  5. Take a Right at the 2nd Commercial Loop Rd (the 1st one has a store on the corner – keep going on Chinook past the store)
  6. Take a Left on Buffalo (there will be a sign at this corner). You’ll see the camping area on the Right once you go past a couple of houses

If you are coming over Mt. Hood (or from the North) – Take HWY 97 through Madras and keep heading South. Just before you get to Terrebonne you’ll see the turn to Crooked River Ranch.
