DESCRIPTION | Nevada
4-year-old big beautiful blue roan 1/2 draft. Folks daydream of owning blue roans, and they night dream of riding a big draft cross with feathered feet. With Nevada you get the chance to have both all in one! As a two-year-old we used Nevada as a pack horse in the wilderness. He logged over 450 miles in the rough and rugged greater Yellowstone ecosystem. He has been on the roughest and steepest trails, crossed deep raging rivers, spent more time as a two-year-old walking mountain trails, tied to highlines, and hobbled in lush mountain meadows, than most horses will experience through their entire lifetime. He has been around every animal from giant grizzly bears to "fool hens" flying up right under his feet. The next spring as a coming three-year-old, he was started under saddle. He spent the rest of that summer being used on the ranch. He also spent lots of time packing family into the wilderness for camping trips and hunting all fall. Through the upcoming winter he will continually be used for all aspects of ranch work. He will be leading pack strings as well as spending days in the pack strings packing protein blocks throughout the foothills where our cows winter. Nevada is a very easy going and docile boy. I tell people often when they act amazed at his incredible disposition at such a young age, and being ridden so often by young kids," Nevada couldn't care less who rides him or if you ride him backwards with three people all at once he just moves on and carries on!" Our boys shoot guns off him, crack bullwhips off him, and find themselves having bareback races in the mountains on him. He has now logged several hundred more miles under saddle and through the summer of 2024 was primarily ridden by Reese, our beautiful 11-year-old daughter and part owner of Nevada. He currently stands 15.3 and growing. Any of us can ride Nevada and while he is not a catty cutting horse, he can sure serve a benefit on the ranch. He handles the mountains like he's done it for 20 seasons. Nevada comes out of our registered shire stud.
