Got to offer a heartfelt and well deserved thanks to the riders, horses, and support group from Utah Team 3.  Through much confusion, ride schedule mix-ups, midday temps above 100 F, and despite missing a handful of our best riders, this group came through.  We needed every horse and rider to make it, but everyone stepped up and worked through the problems to finish our run to Simpson Springs.  And you ought to see the girl who drives our pilot car.  Good luck to the riders to the east.  Go Pony.
