FRIDAY
Friday Evening Twilight rides are staged at 5 & 6 PM. With a larger turn out, another group will be
formed. We usually have well over 100 riders going out Friday evening with about 1-1 1/2 hour ride
duration. Rib dinner is served from 7 PM on and our Welcoming program and entertainment make
this a very social time. If you have never been at this ride, we will make you comfortable and
introduce all of our guides and rides offered at this time.

SATURDAY
Saturday Rides Stage at from 9-10AM, leaving every 15 minutes with 6 groups ranging from
Moderate, All day, and Gaited. Pick up specific times at Registration or announced at Friday Night
Welcome Program 8:30 p.m.

Beginning at Wolfe Base Camp, progressing directly into the upper canyon area to eat at Hidden Lake, Halfway Cafe. We are proud of the natural beauty of this small lake site and will have your fresh grilled burgers and sausages ready. The easy ride back to camp group will return to camp. Others will complete the loop to Inspiration Point and then return to Camp. The total riding time for the entire loop is 4-5 hours, not including lunch rest. Rest rooms are available within the Park for a secondary comfort stop. Portajohns are at our lunch sites. We encourage you to carry personal water. Cell phones work sporadically in the canyon system.
We hope to offer two gaited groups each day. Each group will easily cover the entire loop system. We estimate about 7 miles of total riding...but lots of up and down and switchbacks. Our spring ride is not as warm as the fall ride, but 90 degrees can drain you quickly. Traditionally riders are shedding coats at lunch at the spring ride. We shuttle coats back to camp for your convenience. Non riders at base camps are shuttled up to lunch site in vehicles.  

SUNDAY
Sunday, some rides are condensed and shortened with discussion within groups as to length and duration. Those who want to return to camp by 2PM for early departure will be available, however, long rides are offered. After lunch, shorter returns to camp are offered to participants.
