Day visitors are welcome to the Annual Rocky Mountain IH Rendezvous on Saturday.
Visitors to the event may:
Note: Day visitors are not eligible to participate in any RMIHR shows, competitions or scenic rides.
There are lots of things to do at RMIHR. Look at trucks, find old friends and meet new ones. Wild Game Cookout, Truck Games that you can watch and/or participate in. There are also a lot of hot springs within an hours drive with a variety of pools to enjoy.
RMIHR bases our vehicle classifications for the show on the drive train and suspension modifications that have been done to the vehicle.
What class is my vehicle?
“Judging” may not be quite the right word…
Each truck is voted upon by the other registered participants at the show. Each participant will receive a judging form to be filled out and returned to the Registration building BEFORE 2 p.m. on Saturday. The top vote-getters in each class will be awarded trophies.
Every participant must judge all vehicles entered, not just their own class. The Rocky Mountain IH Rendezvous initiated peer judging to “level the playing field”. This prevents the perception of bias. The judges are the participants themselves.
Everyone has their own likes and dislikes regarding appearance, engineering and use-ability of their IH, regardless of model. Peer judging allows each participant to identify their ideal when evaluating the other vehicles at the show. You, as the judge, decide what exceptions are allowable in each class and which aren’t as well as which vehicle is the “best” of its class.
If you do not turn in your judging sheet, YOUR vehicle will not be eligible to win any awards, regardless of how many votes it gets!
