Emigrant Trails Ride, sign up ASAP, 12 Rider Limit
Another fantastic ride in Northern Nevada and into Southern Oregon. The route for this ride is very similar to the Emigrant Trails ride, and requires the same experienced riders who can ride and handle themselves in any situation. The main difference is we stage on private property East of Portola and spend 2 nights at the Soldier Meadows Ranch, here’s a little history about the ranch.
In 1865 Camp McGarry was established at the location of the current Ranch Headquarters. It was a
U.S. Army winter camp. Its mission was to protect traveling pioneers and freight wagon trains from
Indian attack. By 1865 there were regular freight wagon trains traveling from the Sacramento Valley to
Silver City after silver was discovered in Idaho. Protection was needed along this stretch of the trail, so
the Army established a Fort near Summit Lake (now the Summit Lake Indian Reservation). In the winter,
the army moved the Fort south to Soldier Meadows because it was quite a bit warmer due to its lower
elevation and warm water available from the nearby warm and hot springs. Stone buildings and stables
remain standing from the U.S. Army camp at Soldier Meadows Headquarters and at the Summit Lake
Indian Reservation
Believe me this is a fantastic place to stay! You’ll have the option of either Private queen bed rooms (6)
or rooms with double bunks (3) plus an unbelievable home cooked dinner and breakfast is included with
our 2 nights stay at Soldier Meadows. Saturday night I’ve rented the whole town of Denio Junction there
