Beef Round Up

Since moving cattle from one pasture to another is a major undertaking on a 100,000 acre allotment, we have decided to offer two new trips. When we do a major pasture move, it’s easy to find 80% of the cattle, but that other 20% is a real bugger! We have had some years where it has taken us 6 weeks of gathering to get a pasture clean. We decided that by opening up this trip, and with your help, we can gather and move the herd to another pasture and maybe get 98% of the cattle in a 5 day week. With all of the scattered timber, high Alpine meadows, rocks, canyons and rough country, it’s not as easy as it sounds. There is nothing nose-to-tail about this trip. With 600 head of cattle, we can promise you lots of time in the saddle. The Beef Round Ups are based out of our 9,000 foot cow camp right at the timberline. Due to the coolness of the mountains, we don’t have daylight mornings. This actually makes for a more restful trip. There is an abundance of wildlife, wildflowers, cows and plenty of fresh air to make this one of the most fulfilling weeks of your life. The trip will cover elevations between 6,200 feet and 9,300 feet.
