 Img_3807.jpg (65642 bytes)  Gary Fend's turn. This is Gary's new horse from Texas, Stormy Weather. Stormy has only been with them a couple of months, but has evidently figured out his job. He carried Gary, escorting jr Cameron Holzer, over the finish line an hour before cut off.
 Img_3808.jpg (41874 bytes)  Jon Steven and Spider. Spider is the luckiest horse alive after slipping off trail during the night and being lost for several hours. Come first light the search party went out and he was recovered on Sunday morning, scraped up but otherwise OK. Best wishes for a speedy recovery Spider.

Img_3810.jpg (51996 bytes)  Jon Priest on his second Tevis attempt with Merlin Montiki. After slowing in the canyon, Jon was able to make up some time and was pleased to find that Merlin was willing. They came over the finish line with 45 minutes to spare in 69th place. Jon has also done the WS100 run.
