We are a working Red Angus cattle ranch. (and that's no bull!)We raise a small herd of Red Angus and Red Angus cross cattle on our ranch. Our bulls come from Harold & Pat Hughes, owners of Glacier Red Angus in Polson, Montana. Every year we retain a few of our best heifers and cycle them back into the main herd. We select them for conformation, disposition and the production history of their dams. Now, Here's a Bull GLACIER HI COUNTRY 926 Glacier Chateau 744 X Glacier Dynarise
In 2003 we decided to AI one cow to this outstanding Red Angus sire owned by Glacier Red Angus. The resulting bull calf, HI 47, is long, thick and straight. His mother is a wonderful commercial producer and we have kept all her daughters.
Here are some photos of Pagemaster pulling calves to the fire for branding. That is my daughter, Mykal Kirkpatrick, riding him. He was just so calm & cool, he acted like it was his 1000th calf instead of his first few.
"Neighbors Helping Neighbors" We brand our calves "the old fashioned way" by dragging them to the fire. We have a great time with our family & friends as we share the work among the neighbors. This includes young and old alike. At the branding, everyone has ample opportunity to hone his or her roping skills, vaccinating skills, mugging skills, or branding skills. We even enjoyed a "Yak" branding last year at which a few of us got to practice our running skills. After the work is done everyone delights in a BIG dinner and visiting. As was written in the Radersburg News many times, "A good time was had by all."
