The Red Rock Hounds were
registered with the Masters of Foxhounds Association in
November of 1980, and recognized in 1987. With twelve
English hounds drafted from the Los Altos hunt, Lynn Lloyd
founded the first foxhunt in the state of Nevada. Lynn
gained her early foxhunting experience in Britain in 1968,
and founded her first pack of foxhounds, the Berry Hollow
Hunt, in Pennsylvania in 1974.
Lynn has been supported by three joint
Masters of Foxhounds, Scott Tepper (1986 - ), Marshall
Ward (1992-2001), and Gayle Horn (2002 - ). The joint
masters share the burden of managing the hunt
organization, ensuring good relationships with landowners
and government officials who oversee our hunt territory,
and most importantly, guiding the development of our pack
of hounds.
Over the past 20 years, the Red Rock
Hounds has developed a prominent reputation through the
efforts of the hunt’s masters and members to open the
public’s eyes to the joy of fox hunting Nevada style.
Every three years we enjoy international attendance at the
Pacific District meet which is hosted by our hunt.
Among others, public appearances of hunt members and
hounds include the 1984 Rose Bowl Parade in Pasadena,
California, the 1991 and ’92 Reno Livestock Event Center
Hunter Jumper Gamblers’ Choice, and the 1998 DG Bar
Dressage Show in Hanford, CA. Our hounds have been
featured in National Geographic, Practical Horseman, Chronicle of the Horse, The London Sunday Times,
and Spur Magazine. Recently we have been seen on
television in Outdoor Nevada and John Tyson’s Rural
Nevada.
