I am Nanci Gabri and my husband and I moved to Foresthill because of the Western States Trail. We were up every weekend running the trails training for Western States 100 mile run. I completed the run 2 times.
The 2019 Tevis Cup Ride is fast approaching and I look forward to seeing all the riders and spectators in a few weeks. The riders are planning their final training so that their horses are fit and ready.
Riders! Sign up for Track Leaders' SPOT GPS tracking (or use your own device) rental for the ride. A live tracking map will reflect your progress on ride day – your crew, friends and family can see where you are at any point during the ride.

“Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of solitaire. It is a grand passion. It seizes a person whole and once it has done so, he/she will have to accept that his life will be radically changed.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you are reading this article, you know exactly what Emerson meant.
Heads up! We have some great vendors attending the 2019 Tevis.
Vendors will be available to chat with riders and crews at Robie Park and Foresthill during the ride, and in the Auburn Fairgrounds on Sunday morning throughout the Awards ceremony.
To better explain the “ No saving crewing spaces at Foresthill” policy;
All volunteer positions are currently filled for the 2019 Tevis, however please check back early next year to volunteer for the 65th Tevis Cup Ride to be held on August 1, 2020. Thank you!
