Three Days of Endurance!

This Gala Endurance Event will offer something for everyone: International competition, Arabian Horse Association (AHA) Region IV 100 Mile Championship, and a chance to ride three days of trails of the Owyhee desert at whatever pace you choose.
New!: all 3 50 mile rides are AHA Sanctioned.

Our goal is to bring riders together to ride historic trails in America's 'Wild West', to build friendships and International camaraderie, and to experience it all on horseback.

Ride a relaxed pace - or a competitive race, for 50 miles, 100 miles, or 150 miles ... Any way you want it!
