Owyhee Canyonlands Day 1: Rockin' the Dude



October 11 2016

Coming off his terrific 50-mile ride in the AERC National Championship in Utah last month, Dudley and The Raven did 55-mile Day 1 of the Owyhee Canyonlands in our back yard.

Here's a pictographic account of the ride.

We headed out with Connie and DWA Saruq, and Sarah and Dezzie across the Owyhee desert toward the Snake River Birds of Prey Conservation Area. Steph and Smokey started out with us too, but they smoked onward after a while.


The Hallelujah Trail


First vet check, lots of yummy food! (Dudley's favorite part of endurance rides)


Headed for the loop around Wild Horse Butte,


along the Snake River,


and on the Oregon Trail. (Dezzie is saying, Stay back, Dude!)


vet check 2, more yummy food!



headed for the Birds of Prey Badlands


almost home!


That makes over 800 miles for Belesemo Dude!
