Thank you Stonefield Ranch for the time you spent at our place, you guys were a joy to work with and be around, patient with our kids and our schedule! The talent you guys have for producing high quality content is obvious! Thank you for sharing stories that shed light on the unsung heroes of America. Riley, your narration is always so good and your talent for sharing a story is wonderful! Mike, your video talent and editing abilities are simply incredible, every video is so fun to watch because of the high quality videography! We root for you guys to keep going, we love what you are doing and sharing with the world!
It is nice to see another Wyoming rancher staying traditional. We also use horse power up in the foothills of the big horns. It’s getting harder and harder to ranch this way. Lots of people moving in that want to change our ways sadly. We used to drive our cattle 53 miles on what used to be an old cow trail, thats now mostly made up of highway and new development. Traffic would stop to watch the cows pass through the small town of Big Horn with our long horn steer leading the herd and several cowboys blocking “holes” or pushing them up from the rear. Cow dogs working the back end and keeping young calves up from falling behind. It was an impressive sight. However, now the complaints of cow poop on the road and road jams have outweighed the beauty. We have people cussing at us and trying to drive through the herd. And of course all the once big pastures have been sold, bought and developed. We always had several layover options on the way , to allow the cattle rest and water they needed to make it the leg. Those places have almost all been developed into housing. God bless all of us that strive to keep these traditions alive. I wish the world would slow down long enough to appreciate it.
Love the Big Horn area. Sad to see some of the old ways changing but there may be a resurgence of agriculture in the future. Artificial Intelligence is actually doing a better job of replacing white collar work as opposed to blue collar and some economists are predicting a resurgence of agriculture. Only time will tell.
Reminds me of Colter walls song: I'm lonesome, but happy Rich, but I'm broke And the good Lord knows the reason I'm just a cowpoke The rich but broke line, CLASSIC
This is fantastic! Love the opening line 😂 We’re not ranchers, but we sure do respect you guys! Thanks for making the extra effort to film and share your lifestyle.
Loved this video! Reminded me as a little girls being out on my Grandparents horse and sleigh feeding the cattle on their ranch just 20 min from Cokeville. 😊
Okay, I just subscribed. Feel better now? 🤠 Since our end of Texas is burning up as we speak, I'm having all kinds of new channels pop into my suggested content. Interesting stuff. I always support first gen ranchers and farmers when I find them.
Je vois avec cette vidéo que le cowboy par delà les grandes plaines avec le climat local, garder à cheval encore aujourd'hui, bovidés et équidés, mais aussi de l'intonation quand il parle, une certaine nostalgie ou alors une sorte de tristesse. Ils ont la liberté, et la tranquillité. ce sont aussi des bergers. Comme dans d'autres pays, le berger après la formation, partir dans les Pyrénées sur les hauteurs seul avec ses moutons pendant toute la belle saison aussi avec les rigueurs du climat, tout comme le cowboy.Qui a beaucoup de mérite pour ce qu'il fait,mais aussi rester lui-même, et gagner sa vie pour sa famille.
I think you guys would be shocked if you started advertising bulk boxes of meat. Say 69.00 plus , people want farmer direct meat, and you guys could benefit from the extra margin! With this channel it's time to maximize and sell what you guys do! Im in California and Id love to buy some direct farmer meat on dry ice!
We need more videos information on how to ranch with little or no money like this one. Mostly what I see in life to day on line or in the real e wold is rich ranches. From there top of the line trucks,cars, equipment trailers and horses it wasn't like this when I was young.its hard to be sympathetic when they are in a $100,000 or more truck telling you about there problems Rich people problems
Hello! Landon’s wife here! I agree with you in that we need more videos of real life ranchers who scrimp and save and count literally every dollar. Landon was hesitant to do this video because every part of our ranch needs work. Unfinished barn, unfinished home, unfinished corrals, old equipment around, etc. He dreams of having a beautiful entrance to our place and beautiful fences and finished barns and corrals with clean and manicured surroundings. But right now the money hasn’t been there to complete projects because other areas always interfere with the money needed in a worse way. It’s been frustrating! But it’s an honest part of ranching and also inspiring because it shouldn’t stop people from pursuing something they love. Problems can always be solved if people are resilient and creative enough! I agree with you completely, too many rich guy operations giving people a totally inaccurate perspective of the grind that ranching really is. More light needs to be shed on true operations and the grind associated with humble and responsible American ranches and the sacrifices the families make to keep the ranch alive from season to season! The stories are never told and definitely need to be, we hope Stonefield will continue to put out content like this to inspire anyone to follow their dreams no matter how humble they begin!
@usu04kb24 Hear hear Landon's wife. Ranching and farming has a built in component of humility. Even after you get things rolling your way, something will always come up to knock down a swollen ego. After you've been through it a time or two you learn to laugh and recognize where ya got off track. All those little jobs that make y'all nervous to show your property will get done when those boys get a few yrs older. My grandad ranch in NW TX got divided into parcels of around 700 acres, so there wasn't enough pasture to raise pairs like my great gp, and grandpa did. My dad became a reluctant farmer when in the late 1940s irrigation from an underground aquifer was able to be tapped to irrigate crops. My dad didn't really want any part of irrigating, but dryland farming in a region with only 19" avg rainfall wasn't too lucrative either. After my dad's death my husband and I embraced the high risk, high reward version of grain farming my dad was afraid of. We pinched pennies 'till they bled. We went for years with a lot of dollars coming in, and just as much going out. Finally just shy of a decade we made a decent profit. It was stunning to have money in the bank to buy seed and fertilizer for the next years crop. After that one profitable year we were okay, even during years grain prices were down we always had our "seed" money. Now after 45 yrs of farming success we are going back into grass, cow-calf pairs and sheep. It feels good to take the land back to what it originally was, a short-grass prairie region with a totally different life than the farming rat race.

May never be wealthy, but rich beyond words.
Reminds me of Colter walls song:
I'm lonesome, but happy
Rich, but I'm broke
And the good Lord knows the reason
I'm just a cowpoke
The rich but broke line, CLASSIC
Having his kids involved is the best
Great to know there are content makers striving to showcase the true Heartland of the Americians!!
Great. Young people like the Petersen, that's what society needs, today more than ever before.
Love the song in the video 🥰
Great job , you have the heart and family and they are important
Started watching you guys not too long ago and am impressed every time I see a new video. Good work everyone!!
Thank you. We appreciate that.
Great content guys, keep it up!
Thanks.
Great job guys. Ranching ain't for the weak of heart
Our country needs more families like yours. True Americans that aren’t afraid of good hard work, and pride in what you’re doing. God bless
Nice job guys, you definitely have the skills and passion to make this happen and to add value to what you love.
I think your videos are top quality,I tend to seek out videos related to nature or where I can learn something interesting. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. Here, sending a hello from South Brazil.😊
Could you guys possibly do a video talking about hard mouthed horses and how to work through an older lesser quality finished horse
Nice to see the horses working. Getting rare. All the best to the Peterson family.
Great video!
It's literally on my bucket list to feed cattle with a team. Just once though. I enjoy my AZ desert winters.
It’s a very cool experience.
This is fantastic! Love the opening line 😂 We’re not ranchers, but we sure do respect you guys! Thanks for making the extra effort to film and share your lifestyle.
Thats a great stort to be told and done very well

Saw him and his dad on an episode of MeatEater. Pretty cool.
Great story! Whats the brand of your hat? 🙂
You guys should do one on Pony Track Beef's operation up outside of Sheridan, WY.
What is the song in the beginning called? Thank you
Came here hoping to find this same answer. Sounds a lot like Brenn Hill but hadn’t heard that song before.
It’s a Brenn Hill song he never released called “If I was the Devil,” he gave us permission to use.
We think he should release it!
Yes I agree he should release it. Maybe you can talk him into playing it for us at his April show in Ogden?
Yes you won't make a lot of $$$...But nothing like being your own BOSS !
Only thing bad about being yur own boss is there's nobody to blame when ya make a questionable decision.
