Utah Cattle Drive

Season 19 Episode 8 | 26m 30s | CC

Saddle up! And join us on a cattle drive across the wide open spaces of the American West. We’ll join a Utah ranching family as they move their cattle from winter grazing land to summer pasture. It’s dusty…and dirty…and a life changing experience for these city slickers… who’ve left urban life behind to spend some time on horseback…ridin’, ropin’, and eating and sleeping under the night sky.
