Project Description:
Ms. Tibbals (representing the Mule Show Committee) has applied for a Special Recreation Permit to conduct a twenty-five mile mule endurance race on May 31, 2013. The purpose of this event is to provide participants and spectators with a varied menu of competitive rodeo events that exhibit the skills associated with western U.S. culture.
No new ground disturbance would result from the proposed activity. The proposed route is the same exact route used since 2000.
The 2012 event attracted 15 competitors.
Participants would bring mules from around the country to run in a twenty-five mile mule endurance race. The event would begin at the top of Golconda Pass adjacent to I80 and would follow existing primitive roads. The race finish (and spectators) will be at the Winnemucca Events Center.
Project Location:
25 mile route Starting at Golconda Summit and ending at the Winnnemucca Events Center
