[@freespiritequestrian]

Here is the website to the Ranch. This is the Cow Camp Experience. It’s super unique compared to the others, but honestly the whole ranch and everything they offer is lovely. www.bitterrootranch.com/the-ranch/

Thank you for all the info Shae 😃greatly appreciate it. Keep up with your videos absolutely LOVE them, Love you, and love, love, love all your fur babies 🐎 especially your new baby Mushu ❤️ (sorry if spelling is wrong 😔) Blessings my dear 🙌 Jennifer 💞

[@denisedavis6596]

This was INCREDIBLE to watch!! I’m so jealous and happy for you at the same time. I’d never be able to ride for that length of time. I’ve not been on a horse for so many years. The number one thing on my bucket list before I die is to ride a horse on the beach. I’ve not owned my own horse since 2004. I miss just spending time with them. 💛🧡

[@crystal_gazer7500]

Lol I guessed you were in Wyoming bc I went to Yellowstone National Park for a vacation

[@sheilasmith5481]

Shae, this camping trip is amazing and exciting. Kyle was there and was able to go fly fishing!! Wow. Amazing as a lifestyle. Watching day three now. Exciting you all had a guest from Scotland (my mom's heritage and background) and from France. Lol, I would have wanted to converse with them some. All so interesting and seeing terrain and antelope!

[@CateJohnson-tv1dt]

I’m from Wyoming, and it’s so great to see others enjoying the beauty of the state on the back of a horse.

[@wildwind9392]

That Border Collie is living its best life

[@Clara-ph7my]

This is the life. When you bond with your horse. Out trekking/trail riding, you don't know where you are. You rely on not only your lead but put faith in your horse, for discipline and careful footing. This looks so much fun. Even someone like yourself with your own farm and riding school. You still allow for time to get out there, adapt and experience other places.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes you totally get it! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@TheShift_OfEnergy]

The horses look like from Disney movie. Everyhing is so amazing. I love you being so loving towards the horses. Just speechless.. a true dream.

[@TheLoveystanton]

Wyoming is beautiful. The border collie was doing a good job. What a great experience.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes it was super awesome!

[@ceepark114]

We took a trip to Glacier National Park and wanted to take a trail ride. We hadn’t ridden horses for several years so I was so sore after that 3 hour ride in the mountains! 😂

I would love to go on a rustic trip like this, since we do camp, have a bloodline of farmers and are always enjoying mother nature in any sort of weather. I liked how the camp had you all help in rounding up the cows, put you to work while having fun learning, smart farmers. Such a Beautiful area, Shea & Kyle, I enjoyed your filming, thanks for sharing!

We used to camp in Yosemite growing up. You could rent horses and go all over the park. It's fabulous. My favorite memories of Yosemite ❤ What fantastic memories you're making!! I'd love to have been there ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

OMG! Thank you for the memories. My Mom, sister, and I rounded up cattle in MT for my 35th bday! 20 yrs ago. We were all single at the time so they were thinking singles cruise. Let me think about it. We did a city slickers trip. Was thinking about a place near Glacier National Park similar to what you guys just did, but Mom had to be back in a room/bed/tub each night, plus they were sold out for 2 years. Shout out to Careless Creek Ranch in Shawmut, MT! We were their last group. We picked up another rancher, his horse, and his dog on the way, along with 13 other ranchers, to get the cattle off the govt lands before winter. Saw a herd of elk that am. Oh, and they had 7 herds of sheep with a Great Pyrenees dog guarding each herd. Trip of a lifetime and we still talk about it to this day. Mom is not an animal person and is afraid of horses. They put her on Dan, the tallest horse, but the most sure footed. I got to vaccinate the cattle too. We got back from the trip and they told Mom she had a life threatening heart condition. She chuckled and said, guess it was a good thing we went on vacation, huh? Thank God she's still with us. Mitral valve repair and 1 CABG - 90% blockage. Thank you again horse lover!

[@jokersmom1]

I rode in Wyoming via Girl Scout National Center West----(in Ten Sleep---- closes big town Worland) - on a 2 week Pack Trip in the Bighorn Mountains in 1980. I was 17. Rode "Mohawk." Then I participated in Wyoming's 100 (Cenennial)----- we started in Northern Wyoming trailering- riding as fast as we could go- camping with the horses- and carrying the mail in mochilas (Mail bags) to Cheyenne Frontier Days. We rode into the arena in Cheyenne and delivered the mail. Wyoming and Montana are like my 2nd home.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Amazing!

[@rodandjudibowen5665]

Oh, Shae! What paradise! Bet you wanna return sometime soon! Penny (?) the Border Collie did a fab job at taking care of the whole crew, including the cattle.

Yes they were. I was happy to see my own horses again, I missed them!

[@justplanebob105]

OMG, you're near my old stompin' grounds. I played for 10 years in the Cheyenne Symphony. The sun at that altitude has less atmosphere to filter through and more UV gets through. I am quite fair skinned also and I can't count the times the top of my head, and the rest of me for that matter, was sun-burned. And it happens so fast. I used to joke that we were closer to the sun. My time in the mountains was usually spent flyfishing. I looked up the ranch and realize now it is quite a bit north of Cheyenne and Laramie. Still familiar landscapes. They change very quickly. The antelope are still fascinating to me.

[@freespiritequestrian]

That’s really cool! Yes, I didn’t even think about the altitude till afterwards 🙄 lol.

When you're able to take a minute, and give us the information to go there and enjoy the beautiful countryside of Wyoming. If possible, I'd like all you can pass on. I was actually going to take vacation as one of my bucket list dream. I've never had a vacation, and I've longed to see Wyoming. There's so much to see. Not real populated either. I'm glad you're taking us along with you on your magical adventure.

Wy is one if the top 10 states in size but only has about 500,000 people in it. More mule deer, antelope, and prairie dogs than people. Must see is Devil's Tower. MT. Rushmore isn't too far away in S. Dakota.

[@izacshome]

Loved seeing this. If you and your husband ever go abroad you should look into Horizon Horseback Adventures in South Africa. I think regardless of where you go U.S. or abroad seeing the land via horseback is the best way to go, it allows you the time to really experience it and take it in.

Love it! On the one time I got to ride a horse on a trail ride, in Palo Duro Canyon in Texas, I learned how to lay down backwards as the horse went down a steep stream bank, scared me, but it worked and I didn’t fall off.( I am totally not horse trained). I have a question, what are you to expect when the leader goes so slow your horse keeps bumping the rear of the horse in front and you keep having to slow it down? Is that normal?

[@vickiephilpitt7697]

Hi Shea. This vacation reminds me of one a friend and I took in 2005. We went to a "Dude Ranch" on Colorado, south of Colorado Springs and west of Pueblo. I wanted to do a cattle drive/camp but they didn't offer it in late August (actually ran into Labor Day weekend & same one when Katrina hit N'ORLEANS). We had a very good time and one trail ride took us into the mountains on a very thin trail where my heart nearly jumped out of my chest when my horse stumbled. I'm not a very good horse person so it was really scary when she tripped on the shale. The scenery was much like where you were but we had more trees than pastures.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Wow that’s cool you were able to experience that. Yes, I know that feeling! The cliffs put me on edge too 😂😂😂
