Timely topic for a non agrarian.
I have spent the last month in Idaho and Wyoming and have observed "hay" in multiple configurations. Yesterday I encountered actual cowboys who successfully found 5 stray bovines way up Cliff Creek in Wyoming and they explained the whole process to my wife and I. Ranching/farming is the last bastion of the American west and, is to me, fascinating.
A few days ago I hiked 1.5 miles up an overgrown 2 track on the edge of the Gros Ventre wilderness to find a substantial pole barn full of large bales and not a cow to be seen. Lots of Griz, wolf and elk tracks in the area but only old cow and horse turds. You guys who do this for a living, on the edge of civilization, should market adventure tours to the curious. I am available to help promote this untapped income stream.
Sammo and Large James, you guys need an agent! Call me.
