In the fall, my relatives trail their cows from southern Utah to northern Arizona. It's a two day trip. It happens every year and some are not so much fun as others. That bench on the skyline is where we're headed.
Some of the country is pretty colorful,,, some is just sage brush.
Those cowboys aren't wearing those coats just for fun. The wind blows pretty hard out in those flats.
That year there was plenty of water on the desert. We stopped for lunch,, both the riders and the cows.
Some of the riders are pretty tough, and start quite young. Her mother
and that mare, was keeping an eye on her.
This was another day and in some country further east. This little bunch gave us all we wanted to keep them headed for the corral where we trailered them sixty miles to the ranch. No red rock country here.
The boss knew about this old cabin and took us to see it on the way to find the cows. Us city kids thought it was kind of unique.
On the way home we stopped at Fredonia Arizona to water the horses at the rodeo grounds. We just had to stay around long enough to see this gutsey little gal make her run. She scored.
