A good trip Per, got an invite to Valleyview too but my butt was still sore from the trip up to our AGM in the BC Peace country. Got to mile 81 on the Alaska highway then headed into the bush to the ranch. A 19 hour round trip is still too much for my unadapted European body.
Your cows certainly look in good shape. NR do you prefer the Simmi x Angus over the baldie? I bought a cross section of both when I came here I think I preferred the baldies. The Simmi xs had much bigger production but wore out with me quicker - started to cull most at 8-10 years if they hadn't gone already. The baldies were smaller, produced smaller, ate smaller and lasted longer. Have you worked with baldies too Per?
