yesterday we had a good slow rain all day the problem is it turned to snow last night and there about 3 inches and it still snowing. We off to catch horse and go chase cows back up the moutain.....
Well we got up to the draw were the cow were suppose to be. You could see a few beds in the snow but no cows. We rode up to the top of the ridge and my kids and I rode down and up the canyon. The other two riders rode the ridge and some country to the south.
In the creek bottom the willows were all bent to the ground Like in pray with the heavy snow. Quakes and firs trees branches weighted heavy. I had a tin jacket on over a wool vest, chinks, so if I ducked my head going under a heavy branch of snow, the snow would go down the back of my neck. So I ride with a arm in front of my face, the snow would pile in front of me on the saddle, so only one part of me got wet.
When we got on top they were moving 8 pair and a bull I could see a 100 head scattered were we wanted them, and they went there on their own
Riding in heavy snow in June is a new one for me, but it was drier then riding in rain.
