Preview the 2024 MARS Maryland 5 Star Cross-Country Course
Elkton, Md.—Oct. 18—Thanks to CrossCountry App, you can check out Ian Stark's cross-country courses for the CCI3*-L and CCI5*-L at the MARS Maryland 5 Star!
There are 45 jumping efforts and an optimum time of 11 minutes 15 seconds on the five-star course, which is Stark's final design as he gets ready to retire this year.
The CCI3*-L serves as the U.S. Equestrian Federation CCI3*-L Eventing National Championship and will be 9 minutes and 33 seconds over 34 jumping efforts.
The famous "Crab Water," or MARS Sustainability Bay, is at Fences 20abc and 21abcd for the five-star, so be sure to stop by and check out the huge carved crab drop into water.
The Fair Hill International Rollercoaster for the five-star is Fence 25abcd, and is exciting to watch. Then head over to the middle Hay Field to see a gorgeous carved Scotty, an homage to Stark's Scottish heritage, as well as an tough coffin combination.
The Timber Field has plenty of action as well with the new Brown Advisory Canoe and Cascade waterfall jump at 9ab and the YANMAR Sunken Road at 7abcd.
