A great CDE in a spectacular setting. The wonderful organizers and very generous land owner go above and beyond to make this a fun event for everyone. The terrain is rolling, and depending on weather conditions, can be extremely difficult so horses and ponies must be very fit.
Keep in mind this review is from the perspective of a navigator and not a driver.
Organizers: The organizers were so great. They overcame so many challenges to make this year's show successful.
Stabling/Trailering: Temporary but nice stabling with easy access to the trailers and centrally located. Water access was limited to one wash rack with a few hydrants and there were lines especially after the marathon.
Food/Hotels: Onsite food was very good and readily available. The White Horse Inn Restaurant a few miles up the road in Metamora is highly recommended for a wonderful meal. The catered dinners were outstanding. Hotels were about 15 miles away. Very limited onsite camping.
Marathon: Challenging, hilly course through fields and woods. Horses and ponies must be in very good shape. Depending on conditions, ice is highly recommended after section E and possibly D as well.
Obstacles: Flowed well, challenging. Good spectator access to 5 obstacles.
Dressage/Cones: Very limited warm up area but there are many miles of dirt roads through beautiful hunt country to stretch their legs on. X and G marked with shavings. Cones course is big and fast with some elevation changes.
