Base camp for the brevet and training weekend is the Rockin River Ranch in Camp Verde. This is a real working ranch with horses and buffalo. By the time you arrive in late April, folds and baby buffalo will be newly born. There may even be chicks in the raven nest in the barn rafters.
The ranch is nestled between the Verde River and the base of the mountains and Prescott National Forest. It's so quiet out there you can hear yourself think, and so far from Phoenix that you can see the Milky Way.
The ranch house has bedrooms upstairs and downstairs, living room, kitchen, dining room, and a large outdoor patio.
RV and tenting options available on site.
The Ranch is the base of operations; it is start location for the 200, 300, 400, and 600 km brevets. Coaching and PBP presentations will also be held at the ranch.
