An East-Coast-style competition open to all levels of rider. Teams of 2 or 3 navigate open terrain and optional jumps, aiming to complete the course as close as possible to an ideal time — no one knows what the ideal time is until the end. It's a test of horsemanship, not speed.

Four divisions accommodate English and Western riders of varying experience. Vendors will be on site, followed by a catered lunch and ribbon awards ceremony.

What to Know
  • ASTM-certified helmets required for all participants
  • Non-members must complete the digital liability waiver before riding
