 You Never Know Where You’ll Meet A New Friend

August 28, 2018

By Wendy Pratt We spent the last five days in the mountains moving the herd. It was a route we hadn’t taken before and I had worried about it for weeks. I should have saved the stress because it all turned out fine. The cows were very obedient and went exactly where we guided them. […]

More Like Her

July 31, 2018

By Mark and Wendy Pratt It’s hot. We’re sleeping in the basement where it’s cool and quiet. No dogs barking or kingbirds squawking at 4:30 am. By fall we’ll move back upstairs, but for now it’s a mini-getaway for us. This morning we watched a colorful tanager feed on the berries of the chokecherry out our living […]

July 19, 2018

On Our Way To Grass

May 29, 2018

Spring cattle drive

By Wendy Pratt Photos by Anita Pratt The spring cattle drive is done for another season. A “drive” is the traditional name for moving cows long distances. We call it “the trail,” as in “going up the trail.” There is a subtle but important difference of semantics between trailing cows and driving cows. We still […]

When May Happens

May 14, 2018

By Wendy R. Pratt We’re staging the cows to leave for the hills, putting groups back together since calving and branding, and moving them to green grass on pastures around the home ranch. We’ll open the gates and start walking towards our mountain range next week. Staging is not to be confused with “shaping them […]

The Cover

cow in winter

by Cheyenne Glade Wilson Spring is upon us and soon summer will be in full swing. I love the seasons we are blessed with as ranchers. It never ceases to amaze me how each year has its similarities, but when examining a bit closer there are so many unique things to discover. This reminds me […]
