At McGinnis Meadows, not only do you learn
horsemanship, but you also put everything you've learned to use
working cattle. All season we have steers that you and your horse can track, learn to cut, and ultimately ranch pen.
Starting at the end of May these yearling steers will be turned out on the mountains surrounding the ranch. There will be cattle drive opportunities here at the ranch, as well as out on our Grazing Allotment.

The end of May we’ll be also turning out cows and their calves on our 75,000 acre Grazing Allotment surrounding Lost Trail Wildlife Refuge in Northwest Montana. Driving cattle to new pastures, reriding for strays, and pushing cattle up to the high country is a real hoot! We’ll teach you about the ways of cattle, and about proper land management.

Our Fall Gather runs from the end of September through mid October. In the brilliance of the Fall colors, we'll cover a lot of country. You'll learn about tracking cattle, and there will be some waspy ones that don't want to come in too badly!
You are welcome to ride and participate as much as you wish. Each evening we come home to the heartiest of meals, and 1st class lodging so you'll experience the best of both worlds!
To learn more about today's issues in the cattle ranching industry, pick up an issue of
Range Magazine at any book store.
