Valley Garden Ranch

|
March 13, 2017
The romance and thrill of fly-fishing for rainbow trout and other aquatic beauties in Montana’s cold, crystalline waters was the perfect lure to entice a high powered metropolitan couple to ditch their city suits and don their Carhartts.  The couple and their brood found their Nirvana near Ennis, Montana at Valley Garden Ranch, an eight-thousand-acre...

Road To The Horse

|
March 6, 2017
Road to the Horse ranks among the premier colt-starting events on the planet, its world-class cowboys revered for their near-magical horsemanship skills.

But after Stacy Westfall became the RTTH...

|
February 27, 2017
  The regal yet natural beauty is tracing back her ancestry for me—and it goes a long way back.  Her ice blue eyes and flowing blond hair reflect her centuries-old Castilian pedigree, but the strong, suntanned arms and unmanicured hands are unmistakably those of a working rancher.

That idea quickly grew beyond an all-girl rodeo to a much grander concept:  The National...

The Creamery

|
January 16, 2017
A stone collector for John Mills of Select Stone, the rock supplier for the architectural firm of JLF & Associates, was out in eastern Montana scavenging among the scree—piles of stone on the slope or base of a mountain that have fallen in a rock slide—when he spotted an old building.  The roof was caved...
