- This week we got the last semi load of cows off to Colorado. It was a relief to get everything settled over there. We will take more video of everything over there next week. We decided to show you some of our favorite clips of the desert this year as a tribute to a year we will never forget. Thanks to everyone who watches and supports us.
God is so good look at all the beauty in the land he made. ❤😊
Loved the video, rugged but beautiful country. Thanks again for video
Shawn & 1880 Drifter’s loved toe video today. The recap of the winter made shiver at the snow rides. Can only imagine what it felt like that day.
My biggest regret since my bout with COVID in 2020 is it put me on O2 24/7. It took away the wife and our plans of traveling back up to Utah. We can’t go like we wanted and planned at retirement.
But I am so blessed to still be here and we both thank God for it.
Sorry! It is so beautiful up there and I love all of your posts. Have a blessed week ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Dale, great to hear from you. That Covid sure did mess everything up!!! So sorry to hear about your loss. Thank you for watching, take care.
I love the desert too but also the quakies
Wild cow alfalfa, learned something new about desert feed. I never get tired of the desert blooms. Surprisingly stunning every one...keep educating us on desert feeds. So much more to learn...❤
Please do!
Thanks for letting me ride with you
Thank you for the great video, the highlights, and great music, goodluck in Colorado.
Beautiful ranch country
I never realized how beautiful the desert could be until I started watching your videos! The breathtaking view, the beautiful flowers & the vastness of the desert are kind of spellbinding!
I hope the cows stay where they belong better than they did last year in Colorado. You guys did a lot of fence fixing up there🥴 Thank you for another awesome video & the work that you put in to share your lives with us. God Bless
A busy week for sure. 86° muggy degrees here in western Kentucky this week. That snow looked inviting. Thanks for sharing.
👍👍👏👏🇺🇲
I am thinking the same thing right now, the knats about chewed my ears off today.
Stay safe and love each other
Come on over here to the lush Colorado meadows!
Amen
Excellent recap! Some of those “roads” you drive on are scary! So glad I found your channel. Thanks for the video!
Thanks Gail, see you next week
Good tribute Colorado here we come there’s just something about breathing that high mountain Colorado fresh air.

Thank you, we are ready for summer!!!
Heading to greener pastures!
I will say that I really like that desert country. It's so different from any of the areas around here. That desert has so much baron land and yet there is beauty in it.
Thx for all the great videos, fellas! Sure do enjoy them. Take care.
Those plants appear to be a kind of buffalo berry. Thank you for the video.
thanks for taking use along great ride
Injoyed that very much good by desert hello rocky mountains
Blessed you are to make a living in such a beautiful as that desert.
Wonderful as always! Great music, super videos and lovely to share your family moments , thank you all❤️
Such a Blessing to have us with you through out your Rides/cow hunting really enjoyed it.
Sure love to watch some more videos while you're out ,& about Cowboying on the Rockies.
Thanks again.
Thank you Avery, we are jumping right in this week. See you next week
Well done
It’s sad it going but a great time in the desert. You guys did a great job there. On the next adventure for the cows and you guys too. God bless you guys. Adorable cows. Love the horses.
Having grown up in a multigenerational family of farmers and cattlemen, I’m always interested to know the origin stories of how you and your family got into the cattle business?
I bet everyone would enjoy the details. Thanks in advance!
Thanks Jeff, that is a good idea
5:16 Lobeleaf Groundsel (Packera multilobata) 6:39 Roundleaf
buffaloberry
(Shepherdia rotundifolia) Sometimes called Silver leaf.
19:16 Kingcup Cactus
(Echinocereus triglochidiatus) Also called claretcup, or Mojave mound cactus.
Ha Ha, that is crazy!!! all these years and I never knew what that plant was. You must really know your stuff if you figured that out! Thank you. And thanks for all you help identifying these plants.
Thanks for putting names to the plants on these videos. I know the Drifters appreciate it. One more little nugget of information about our natural environment is always nice.
👍👍👏👏🇺🇲
Just a little sadness leaving the desert or congratulate you in the drifters on the great year and then just congratulations your friend Billy
Billy!!!! hey it sure is good to hear from you. We hope you are doing good and feeling better. Thanks for following us along and thanks for checking in with us each week. Take Care
Long live cowboys and the lifestyle! We love you! 🤠❤️
Thank you Linda!!!!!
Great Video...except cleaning the cow...that gives me smell vision from doing it myself...LOL !!! Love the GREAT Views !!!
This just capped off my Sunday! Such stunning scenery & love the drone shots.
Thank you for another great Video about the beautyful Landscape, real strong Men and wonderful Horses. I love your Channel so much!
Thank you, that means a lot to us
Plant looks like saltbush
Here we go.
What a fantastic season.
Beautiful country!thank s for sharing.
I looked up the plant you asked about and it is called roundleaf buffaloberry. It is a species of bullberry. Apparently it has berries on it that early settlers would make a sauce with to put on buffalo meat! It only grows on the Colorado Plateau.
That is crazy, saddle tramp also identified it. That is the first time I have heard of that plant. Thanks for looking that up for us, and thanks for watching.
Been enjoying your videos enjoyed this one but don't leave us hanging with nothing for the whole summer LOL
looking for the next week's video what goes on around the ranch
We are jumping right in out in Colorado, so it won't slow down any. This week we are going to try to find some of our missing cows. We have a lead on one of them that is a chronic runner, so I am taking dogs in the morning to see if we can get her. So hopefully next week will be a great video. Thanks for watching
Boy I'd miss the desert area too it's so Beautiful 😍 Enjoyed all the scenery plant 🥰
If you cannot find all your cows how do you know whether or not a predator has eaten it? The desert is really a pretty place. Love the intense colors of the flowers. Thank you for showing us the flowers and everything else the desert has.At least the one you use. So now what do you get to do? Take a well deserved vacation?
Hi Helen, I wish we could, but we start right in out in Colorado. We will explain more about that next week in our video. We keep very close books on our cows. We know that we are out 5 cows, that are still on the desert. We will be looking for them starting tomorrow. Most of the time we find them, but sometimes we don't. It is not very often that we have a Predator kill a cow, most of the time it is sickness or old age. But we don't rest until we find them all. Thanks, see you next week
The Paint horse really stands out on your videos. Do you guys ever butcher one of your cows to eat? Jaden the calf wrestler. You guys could get a muffler for your mics to help cut down on the wind when you guys are filming. Do you guys breed your horses? Do you guys do horse training as well, like Colt Starting and things after the horse is started?
Hey Ty, good to hear from you. Hope your surviving the heat down there. We do raise our own beef to eat. We have several feeder steers each year. We do have mics but it is such a pain to wear them all the time, that we just leave them home!!! We get most of our Colts from Black Diamond Ranch. Kenny Black has a top notch breeding program and we love his horses. We are always riding colts and have 2 that we are starting now. Take care
When do you guys tag your calves since there out there on the desert? Thanks for another video!
Hi Noah, we tag them when we brand them. In order for us to get a brand inspection to go into Colorado, everything has to be branded and Tagged. Thanks for watching.
Hope you guys have a great summer in Colorado.
How many mother cow do you guys run?
As much fence as you fix in Colorado I have a tool that is the best for repairing fence I have ever used , called Texas fence fixer, think it would help you .
I have never heard of that. Believe me, fence is the thorn in my side!!!! Would love to know more about it. We run about 350 ish on the Colorado ranch. Take care
Shawn there are a couple videos on CZcams showing Texas fence fixer, I also use it on broken wires . Simple great tool, hope this helps you
Awesome country gotta love Colorado though. How many loads do you take to the high country? Enjoy your summer here in Colorado.
We took 10 truck loads and a few stragglers in the trailer. We will jump right in this week and hope that everything goes well. Thanks for watching
is that jade plant
Roundleaf Buffaloberry
@@saddletramp1860 thanks for that.
Could your dessert Alfafa be Roundleaf Buffaloberry?
It is!!!! I did not know that is what it was called. All these years and just now figuring out what it is. Thank you
You're more than welcome🙂.I had to do as little research to figure it out.
