Never done Tevis before, and there are a few things I can’t
find in the website, so I’d appreciate the kind help of anyone who knows
the answers to my missing pieces.
1.How early can you get to Robie Park prior to the ride?
Thursday? I found lots of camping info about the fairgrounds, both pre
and post ride, but nothing about Robie park where the ride starts. How
soon can people and their horses start arriving there?
2.I didn’t make reservations at Auburn, since my
mule is happier on his hi-tie rather than a stall – Is there REALLY plenty
of room there for my husband to wait for us during the ride?
(Since prior to the ride, we’ll be at Robie…?)
3.Does car pooling of crew really work out? I have a
dedicated crew person and a small truck for her, so I’d need to find someone
to ride with that paces at the end of the pack like I do, right? So our
crew can get to the same places together on time… Otherwise, how do you
do this?
4.If you were going to pick just 2 places for your crew
to be waiting for you, they would be Robinson Flat & Foresthill for the 1
hr holds…right? The ride info makes it seem like any other places are an
unnecessary expense of time, especially since there is horse & rider
supplies at all the stops – is this true? If not, where else would
you have your crew meet you?
5.I’ll be attending the educational ride next
weekend, and after that, would love to find someone to do additional
pre-rides. Please let me know. Kathy – you still helping us
new kids along the trail?
