With the backdrop of the Valle Vidal and Wheeler Peak Wilderness, this event has drawn organizational support from the New Mexico Sports Authority, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, New Mexico Game and Fish, the Wild Turkey Federation, Rio Costilla Livestock Association, Carson National Forest, Camping World, and the Fish Phone. The goal of the event is to promote what Red River is all about: hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, off-road trail riding and a host of other outdoor activities.
