Spring In Layers

March 19, 2015

Our first day of spring looks different than most of the rest of the world’s, but that’s what we’ve come to expect living at 9,000 feet above sea level. Hannah took this photo just outside our downstairs door at home. The deck keeps snow from accumulating on this one little patch o...

“Great things are done when men and mountains meet.” ~William Blake While I suspect this statement isn’t always true, it proved so for me this past summer. A little over a year ago, I’d never heard of Latigo Ranch or Kremmling, Colorado, and I certainly had no idea what...

Wild Turkeys

January 29, 2015

We’ve had a very mild January in Latigo standards; afternoon temperatures often in the 30s and not a new snowflake to be found. Not only have we found it very pleasant, but the wildlife has as well. Early last week, Nate was grooming ski trails and saw two moose hanging out by the snowcat shop...

Happy New Year!

January 04, 2015

Latigo was quite busy from Christmas through New Year's Day.The snow was abundant and our guests had a great time. This photo was taken early one morning from the front porch of our Historic Log Lodge. Chilly, but absolutely beautiful. All of us here wish you and yours a wonderful 2015. Randy

Thanksgiving & Winter Pastures

November 29, 2014

Snow has covered the Latigo lawn for weeks now, the pond has frozen over, and as of this morning the horse herd is safely ensconced in their winter pasture until mid-May. Spencer led the herd riding Concho while Hannah and Randy rode Crow and Stetson keeping potential stragglers and/or deviants clos...

Gathering Cattle in the Fall

September 29, 2014

Again this September we had a wonderful time assisting the local ranchers gather and move their cattle. The weather was wonderful, some of the best we have experienced in the last quarter of a century of Fall Roundups.

Spring in the Colorado High Country

April 08, 2014

These photos, taken on April 7th, will give you an idea of how much snow we still have around the ranch. The meadows down by Kremmling are clear of snow and a bit of green is sprouting up. We have a wonderful summer planned with a great crew arriving in May. Reservations are coming in strong. We're ...

Nocturnal Visitor

February 24, 2014

We have a wood fired boiler that we use to heat our house in the winter. With the abundance of timber available for firewood, we thought we should use it rather than propane. Each evening before we turn in for the night I go out and add wood to the boiler. Last night, when I came in, I caught...

It Just Keeps Snowing

February 08, 2014

We have had over twice the snow fall this year compared to last. Our cumulative snow fall for this winter exceeds 12 ft. March and April are traditionally our snowiest months. So more is yet to come.The horses are doing great. Our friends, Vicki, Cameron, and Caitlyn Taussig, feed them hay and look ...

February in the Rocky Mountains

February 05, 2014

I know that the folks in the Midwest and in the Northeast are experiencing a rough winter. We've had our share of snow at Latigo this winter too and we're thankful for some spectacular sunny days with brilliant blue skies. What a great place to live. We're thinking about the upcoming summer season....
