The last weekend of May. And it's my favorite ride of all the ones I've ever been too. It's at a big ranch in a town just west of Tulsa, so it's very close, only about a 1 hour drive. I like it because it's challenging enough to be interesting, but not as hard as the ones like in Ark. Ark. is fun, but by the end of the day, you are just beat to death:). The hills there are all long and steep because it's in the Kiamichi Mountains. I like it because it does challenge you, and I was going to go to it this year, but it's this weekend and my horse isn't in shape. It's one of those rides, you don't realize you're having fun till you've gotten back home and rested for a day:) I've been to this ride probably about 5 times and every ride several horses colic or tie up, and once a horse died. I pulled out one time, because Belle was struggling. But it's also the place we got 1st place horse and rider, and high point combo and high point quarter horse:). I was very proud of her that weekend and sailed thru the 4 hour trip home singing at the top of my voice:). It was a real rush.
