  • i now know hard :D i went on a 20 day canno trip with no adults and limited food and water. and im 13 it was hard on me

  • @halo2owners

    :-) okay...you win and I'll check. Generally the drivers are in late Sept/early Oct and I'm not sure about the age restrictions. They do short drives - only a day (pre-sunrise to post sunset).

  • Good video thinknews. There are several "smart" people making negative comments but the only opinion that counts is yours. Thanks for posting.

  • @SuperMarvinjames

    My skin is thicker than the cattle hides, but thanks.

  • 40,000 acres of public land that should have been left for wild animals such as the wild horses that live on the pryor mountain wild horse refuge right outside of lovell. Those extra acres would be a real blessing to those horses

  • I love young fresh cowgirls, nothing on Earth compares to them.

  • I ♥ WYOMING

    

  • I want to do this someday ^_^

  • Yes sir, you can find some pretty country out there. Some of the friendliest folks I meet on a road trip last August are there, outside of Nebraska.

    Ranching is a hard life anywhere, but it's a pretty honest way to make a living too, and you'll always know pretty much what your day will be like when you go to bed at night.

  • 0:18 Wannabe thats what they are they call themselves cowboys but yet i see a foolish idiot that doesnt even know how to sit a saddle FOOLS!

  • Some of the folks on the drive were NOT cowboys...but most belong to one of the oldest families in that region who were born riding...by the way this is real riding, not show or race track riding.

  • @thinknews love how people critisize others on these videos. that fool probably knew more about horses at the age of 5 than buffguy will ever know. I like the way you put it though couldn't have said it better myself.

    this is real riding not show or race track riding.

  • @thinknews is this you? and where could you learn to use the whip and how to keep them together im 14 and i wanna go on a cattle drive i love riding

  • @halo2owners

    Yes this is thinknews...but I appear nowhere in this video...I'm the one walking carrying the camera. None of these cowfolks used whips...they use horses, dogs, and sound (yelling) to herd the cattle. I can email my sister, whose family is shown about your question.

  • @halo2owners

    I wish I could do both also...I am trying to set up a visit during the next cattle drive, so if I ride, it should be a spectacle. But while it looks like fun, it is hard work. You can't stop when you're tired.

  • Buffguy, you need to learn to lead by example. ...and maybe open your eyes to the background story here.

  • @buffguy0 so go out there and show them how its done.

  • Big beautiful Wyoming. And it is. Lived there for seven years. Douglas, Wyoming---So many wonderful people. Of course the winters were very cold, but it was worth it.

  • YOu know the sad thing is ive been worken cattle horseback all my life and it looked to me like the dog and the older feller was the only one that had a clue what was goin on hahaha

  • Great video!

    What type of dog is that? I really want to get a herding dog.

  • @nichins Blue healer. Some people call them Australian cattle dogs.

  • That is an Australian Blue Heeler, also known as the Australian Cattle Dog.

    Best herding dogs ever. You won't find another that has half as good herding instinct.

  • Thanks for the reply. Aussie cattle dogs are on my short list.

    Do you know how they are with animals that need a 'gentler' touch than cattle, like sheep or even fowl? (I got a job on a sheep and cattle ranch this summer - been thinking about getting a dog this summer.)

    I'm also a little concerned about the sheer amount of exercise they need. I've been reading they need two hours a day of strenuous exercise (more than just walking). But I would guess a lot of herding dogs are in that category.

  • Nichins, Aussie Cattle dogs and Texas Heelers (same thing actually) will get plenty of exercise chasing the Sheep, Cows, kids and whatever else you set them to.

    The Aussie was born to herd/heel

    Sheep is what they were prinarily used for in Australlia, and even the UK.

  • You don't find the answer to your problems by running away from them. The East Coast is vibrant and the many cultures are what make it exciting. You may find yourself bored with the endless flat lands and lack of neighbors. Learn to live within yourself to find happiness.

  • im sick and tired of living in the boring east coast, i wanna live in a country west coast state, with no minorities

  • Well if your white, there's some pockets of Wyo that make you the minority.

  • What does that mean if you are white? I am NOT from wyoming, just wanted to know what it means? Thanks

  • Sorry I guess I was replying to a comment, not thinknews

  • I have worked the odd job in diferent parts where the majority is hispanic and spoke spanish. Me being white I was the minority.

  • I live in Etna Wyoming, and it is very beautiful there.. Im 11 but my dad said we might go to the cattle drive and ride horses Im so excited!

  • you damn city folk

  • Sorry about the comments that might have offended...somehow notification was not made to me and I wasn't aware they were posted. Or at least I hope you were referring to the two battling idiots who left comments.

    I for one live in the country...albeit a bit too close to town for my comfort.

  • Wow, this brings back some nostalgia. I lived on a ranch just outside of Fort Laramie for a year of my life. It's an experience I wouldn't give back for the world.

    School was odd, as I was a big city kid placed in a small town. 365 people, 359 good people and 6 sore heads was the sign into the town. I came from Milwaukee, so you can guess the culture shock that ensued.

  • Liar.

  • Why would you call me a liar? It's absolutely true.

    If you're from that area, I can tell you the "Millers" were on the end of my bus route, which was just down a gravel road that went out pretty much at 180 degrees from the historic Fort Laramie and ran along the "canal" which we would catch craw dads in.

    Also, I have a few old slugs from the OLD rifles that shot on the ranch property I lived on. Why I would lie about something like this is extremely odd.

  • try going from ORange County California to the small island of culebra Puerto rico.... thats a culture shock

  • Beautiful way of life its nice to see!

  • you must think that because you are atheist. it must cloud your judgement.

    you probably live in some dreary gray city in the east.

  • I live in a city to the east of Wyoming. That's right...

    It is always interesting to see Americans' reactions to my nickname. That shows how well I chose my user name. :)

  • have you every even been outside of whatever shit eating city you live in and breathed fresh air?

    this is a great place, the people here are real and friendly, you dont have to pretend you are badass to make friends here.

  • Great video! I'm a 1st grade teacher in Florida and we're studying cowboys, and our "Book of the month" is about a cattledrive. I'll start my teaching with this video and then we'll read the book. NONE of my kids have any idea of a real drive. This will be tremendously helpful to build background, since we can't go on a drive! (I went on an all-day drive about 12 years ago and loved it.)

  • The best state in the US

  • that is the reason i moved here its absolutely beautiful!

  • Beautiful! I love living in a state where you can still see cattle drives. I love living here, it is a wonderful state with very generous and hard-working people. So glad I moved here.

  • I hope this is something that will be carried on through the generations. Wonderful video!

  • i grew up in burlington, just outside of cody. i sure miss it a lot. got a lot of good family down in wyoming.

  • Good video.

  • Great Vid!

    Thanks.

  • This is such an interesting professional Vid!

    Awesome!

    you should have entered it in some kinda Video contest!

    The subject is very unique and interesting. The people/characters are So good! The narration is great! WOW!

  • I grew up around Casper and have great memories of going to brandings and riding our horses. Great video and I like to see the kids out there like I was learning from life not books or TV.

    Thanks

    Frank

  • I grew up in Lovell, and know the Brown family really well. I sure do miss home.

  • Dogs on the highway is a good way to get squashed dogs. You can't rely on the gunsels to have any sense, so you ought to keep the dogs in the truck when you get to the road.

  • These are working dogs who stay with the herd. The cowboys keep a close eye on them - the dogs are their partners. Cattle dogs in trucks are useless.

  • Really Nice!

  • Grew up in Cody.  Great video, make more!
