When Bucking Horses Were Bucking Horses

PHOTO OF COWBOY WASHING UP AT WELL AND HORSES IN BACKGROUND

 

A cowboy washes up at a well after a hard day of wrangling in 1904 at the Bow Gun Ranch near Miles City. In those days horses were worth a whole lot more to cowboys than the outbuildings and corrals seen in this photo taken by L.A. Huffman. This year marked the 65th annual Miles City Bucking Horse Sale, and it’s good to remember where your roots began, partner.
