Ranching Continues At -39 Below Zero!

[@jeremywagner9429]

Still the hardest working guy on KZbin!!! Keep it up Brian. Your channel gets better and better every video, and neat to see the new drone footage!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thank you! I sure appreciate the compliments!

[@stevensaxon8888]

Thanks for another great video. Did you get your drone license to fly your drone?​@@LuthiRanchWY

[@Sonoma_Coast]

Drone gave some beautiful shots. Real vivid Blues of the sky and Mnts. The music with it was good too.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks! I’ve been really impressed with it so far

[@scottraven1721]

Excellent photography, and very well put together. your children are going to love this channel Thank you

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks! I think about that often, that this channel will eventually be a journal for the ranch when I’m dead and gone. If KZbin lasts that long haha. Always good to hear from you. Hope your summer hasn’t been too hot down there.

[@robertsimmons3556]

Great pictures of Star Valley and your ranch Bryan! The weather you all deal with is brutal and takes someone with strong metal to drive forward everyday! Clearly your feeding plan is working, with no refusals on the ground. Hope the temperatures get above zero soon! We all hope the new tool helps give a positive answer to the MIA cows and calves! Again great video Bryan!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

We are hoping it warms up a bit too! I think we’ve got our feeding pretty well dialed in. We don’t have hardly any waste, it stinks feeding every day but it’s the best way to meter our hay use. Thanks for all your support!

[@deb283028]

Thank you to the viewer that provided the drone. Footage is AWESOME!!! The scenery is breathtaking.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

We are really excited about the drone!

[@Ad_venture666]

Nice Video with great Drone shots Bryan 👍🏻 and Thanks for Update.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks and you are welcome!

[@lenrodal5]

Nice gift. You did great with it.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks! I’ve been really excited about it and have been putting it to work.

[@kellyhawk822]

Thanks for sharing. Great shots of the farm with your new drone. We’ve only been that cold one time here in West Virginia lately. I know when we ran dozers those days the fuel would gel up. Hopefully you’ll find those missing cows

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks! Knock on wood we haven’t had anything gel up yet.

[@Brandon-q7p]

Agreed with that other comment you are the hardest working KZbinr. I shudnt complain about taking my cows three rounds bales a week.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Appreciate the comment!

[@bobdetweiler1120]

Thanks for taking up to see 360 degrees what all you do down below! Happy you have a drone to see more visually what you're dealing with from above. I enjoy the ethic of your hard work instilled by your Dad, he's a good man, you're blessed to follow his footstep.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks for your kind comment! We are very excited about the drone! Hopefully it adds to the quality of the channel! My Dad is a good man

[@wayner806]

Awesome drone video! Especially your maiden piloting and feeding at the same time. Saw y’all were -20 this morning (1/26). We are 30-50s for highs. Sat outside in the sun this afternoon in T-shirt without the wind. I enjoyed it. Stay safe and warm and good luck feeding.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

It’s been a longer cold stretch than what I was hoping. I’m glad someone is enjoying some decent weather! So I practiced with the drone a few times before taking it feeding, I just meant that was my first time trying to fly the drone but do something else while it was flying. There’s a bit to learn with it but I’ve sure enjoyed it so far. Hope you and your family are doing great!

[@lyndseydaniels5652]

This turned out even better than I imagined!❤

[@LuthiRanchWY]

A lot prettier than Utah haha

[@ss54.]

Great video. Such a contrast between the beautiful drone footage and the reality of the hard work on the ground.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks!

[@davidandrews8631]

Great video, loved the drone footage! I cannot comprehend -39, I live in the England. We complain when it's a couple of degrees below!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks for watching all the way from England!

[@ConnieThompson-f9m]

Amazing work to feed all the cows... assume you are moving them soon? The hay you are loading is at Randall's--you are using up inventory at that location before moving them home? Sure do hope you find those cows,, they have to be in some pretty deep snow I would think. Good Luck!! And God bless

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks! Yes we actually moved them back to our place on Friday. I wanted to use up the hay I had bought from Randall so instead of moving all the hay up to our place we just moved the cows down there for a little over a month. I hope to find the cows too.

[@waynewayne5650]

True heart of America !! Excellent as always Be safe .

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thank you!

[@bcpfarmandtrucking6560]

You are getting hit with the same weather we had up here in Saskatchewan Canada...-38c with windchill of-48...keep the cow's fed well and stay warm 👍👍

[@LuthiRanchWY]

We are lucky we don’t get much wind here. Hope you are surviving winter up there so far!

[@Centercreek]

Beautiful footage.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks!

[@danielrunkle815]

These drone shots are really cool!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks! I thought so too!

[@southtexashay777]

Good morning hope you have a great day and a heck of a good week. Freaking cold for you.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks! It’s been a cold one. Hope things are going well for you!

[@southtexashay777]

@@LuthiRanchWY Doing Ok. We are taking some cattle to auction this afternoon.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Good luck at the auction!

[@southtexashay777]

@@LuthiRanchWY Over 3000 calves at the consignment, feeder/heifer replacement sale. Surprised the crap out of us. We will see what price we get.

[@timflick2147]

Hope it warms up there soon before those calves start showing up. We are 21 days away from the first calves coming. Amazing that spring water can stay open that much in those temps. Must have a pretty decent flow.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

I hope it warms up too a bit, not too warm though where things start to melt and get wet though. Good luck with your calving!

[@kentkeller5211]

No one believes how cold it gets in that country. I grew up in Big Pine jus over the hill from you. I saw -65 a couple of times.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

I’d believe it! That Pinedale/Big Piney/ La Barge area always seems to be even colder than we are.

[@Brievel]

The drone footage is super cool!!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

I was excited about it!

[@Brievel]

@LuthiRanchWY I can see why!

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

Thanks for sharing the chores on a cattle farm!! Farmer's would tell me im wasting feed rolling it out. I don't know what part of no i am not they don't understand!! U think i want to waste feed while i went to all those hrs and fuel just to waste it.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

I agree with you, feeding this way eliminates most of the waste. It stinks having to feed every day but it’s the best way to save on hay.

[@justindavenport9888]

LOVE THE DRONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT WORK, KEEP IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thank you!

[@Land-f7q]

Great video. Stay warm and safe.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thank you

[@piperdoug428]

Man yer backdrop is biblical, yeah coldest ive experienced since moving to SW Manitoba is -67c

[@LuthiRanchWY]

We are lucky to live in such a beautiful place. Those temps sound rough, I’ve never experienced anything that cold.

[@robinm6662]

Spectacular!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

I think the drone will be a great tool!

[@robinm6662]

@ absolutely, it showed amazing views, Thank You!

A funny bird😂😂

Haha it looks like a funny bird!

[@toddcaskey9984]

Morning , last week we had -10 , nothing like u guys. Lol

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Morning Todd. -10 is cold anywhere it all starts feeling the same after a certain point haha

[@paulnorman2652]

liked your video

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Glad to hear! Hope you are doing well!

[@motel581]

You got any tips and tricks for what you do to get your main diesel truck to start every time? Other than plugging it in, do ya have any upgrades to deal with the cold? I’ll take this cold over wet and warm! Lambing starts for me next week, can’t imagine -40!! we only had -3, no where close to you!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

I don’t know how much each of these help but this it what I do. I run Stanadyne fuel treatment to try and keep fuel from gelling up, most of the fuel up here this time of year is already a winter blend. We don’t have a garage yet so I park my truck outside facing south. My truck is black so that probably helps it absorb a little warmth from the sun. That’s about it though.

[@rescuecow90]

Feeding cows is monotonous,it’s what we do,my cows are housed 365 I’ve personally fed them every day for the last six years,only missed twice in ten years when my brother did them.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

That’s crazy and quite the commitment! I’m always happy when ours are able to start grazing and we don’t have to worry about feeding them.

[@Sonoma_Coast]

How long do you stay out without getting frostbite?

[@LuthiRanchWY]

I’ve got frost bite on my cheeks once but that was on a snowmobile and the wind found a spot between my googles and helmet to get through. Other than that I can stay out most the day and be ok as long as you are dressed for it. If we had some wind that would be a different story.

[@randaljohnson580]

Any sign of elk or did they move on?

[@LuthiRanchWY]

We seen some elk the other day when we were on snow mobiles in the mountain but I haven’t seen anything yet down low.

[@randaljohnson580]

@LuthiRanchWY I believe I remember that you said you're dad never had problems for years so hopefully it be years again

[@LuthiRanchWY]

That’s true, my Dad has never had problems with elk before. That winter two years ago was the first and only year so far

Are you going to take the drone out and see if can see any sign of the missing cattle? Beginning of January did you leave me that email.? I can text you.👍

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Yes I left you an email. Also yes I want to try and use the drone to find our missing cows if they are up there.
