It is being done in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. Our sanctioned CTR's are
not UMECRA, ECTRA, or NATRC. Our rules run the ride a bit faster than Natrc,
without artificial obstacles (our trails have enough natural ones!), no
horsemanship judging. We have a great time and we like the way our rules
have evolved.

It's a great sport, but it isn't endurance. It's just better than NATRC, for
us anyway.
