Scott Smith, President of High Lifter Products, said that hosting a mud riding event in the North was well worth the hard work. “It’s no secret that our team is a well-oiled machine when it comes to our annual event in Texas and they certainly didn’t let a new location throw them any loops,” Smith said. “Our experience with the riders of Minnesota and the Northern United States and Canada cannot be compared. We are truly grateful that we are able to bring a one-of-a-kind event like this to a part of the country that loves the outdoors like we do” Results and a description of each event are as follows:
