cattle drive

Some of the ranch work is on the ground, i.e. branding calves or loading and shipping cattle.
 The ranch provides timbered canyons, high plateaus and endless sage brush prairie. You can hike and watch the abundant wildlife. Or go swimming, boating or fishing. The trout taste great. Non-riders who like to be away from it all will also be able to enjoy this place.

When time and the season allow we visit rodeos, country dances and horse auctions with our guests. If you want to combine a ranch vacation with traveling though the Wild West, you should plan a trip to Yellowstone National Park in Western Wyoming, the Badlands in South Dakota or the battlefield on the Little Big Horn where in the 19th century General Custer and Chief Sitting Bull fought one last big battle.

RIDING and other ACTIVITIES
Riding is in the center of all the activities on the ranch. When we don't move cattle to a different pasture, we check fences and reservoirs, look for strays or practice "roping" and "cutting". And sometimes we just ride for fun...
We train our horses the Parelli way (natural horsemanship) which allows for a better communication with the horses and makes riding safer for you. If requested we can organize a course with a certified Parelli instructor.
You don't have to be an experienced (Western) rider to visit us. Even beginners can participate if they are physically fit and not easily scared.

branding

Just half an hour away is the US' first National Monument, Devils Tower. The ancient vulcanic vent which was exposed by millions of years of erosion is the setting  of many movies and a holy place for the Lakota Indians. The old gold digger town of Deadwood, the Harley Davidson mecca Sturgis and the famous presidential heads of Mount Rushmore can be reached in two hours or less.
