The Rocky Mountain Ride will conclude with the trail turning NW to skirt the Porphyry Peaks, cross the Rabbit Ears Range and the Continental Divide at Illinois Pass, then venture back up to the Divide at WIllow Creek Pass before finding a celebratory ending at the JC Ranch near Old Homestead, Colorado, halfway between Granby and Walden. Prizes will also be given each day for Completions, Best Condition, Runner-Up Best Condition, Top 10 in placings, Top 3 in weight divisions, and Tail Ender. Basecamp in Arlington will open on Saturday. 50 Gas, diesel, groceries, liquor and showers are available in Laramie, Arlington, Centennial, Walden, Granby and Grand Lake. Please let us know if there are days you don't plan on riding, or if you are one of the fortunate few to have a spare crew person for loan.
Vendors are welcome.
Please contact Brad Patterson for information. Don't forget to bring some spare change for Rocky Mountain Ride shirts, sweaters, hats, books, and other paraphernalia, and for drinks at the WyColo Lodge. Please identify kickers with red tail ribbon, and stallions with blue tail ribbon. Stallions will have a designated camping area, and should be thoroughly secured. Juniors are discouraged from riding stallions.
