Wagon Days
A Ketchum, Idaho Tradition.

Since 1958, the City of Ketchum has celebrated its mining history with the largest non-motorized parade in the west.  Spend a day with the whole family. The Big Hitch Parade begins on Saturday at 1 p.m. The Big Hitch Parade, features- quality buggies, carriages, carts and stagecoaches, and begins at 1 p.m. and proceeds down Sun Valley Road before turning north on Main Street. The grand finale, as always, will be the “Big Hitch,” historic Lewis Ore Wagons pulled by a 20-mule team from Bishop, CA on a jerkline.
