I love this channel. It's managed very well. I'm not from Colorado, I'm actually Canadian. But where I live (Alberta) is so similar in every way that it's basically just a Canadian version.

I LOVE these programs, especially as a Colorado native. Cool to picture these places and know I've been there.

I love your documentaries and respect the hard work that ranchers and farmers throughout the generations had to put in to succeed and either flourish or survive through good times and bad, but on thing I do think is missing from this and many other documentaries about the land that they occupy is how that land was originally obtained, the indigenous people, in many many cases were either forced by violence to leave or swindled out of it, that is something that is hardly ever mentioned, and when it is, it barely gets a few lines of narration, instead of thanking their ancestors for starting, maintaining, and passing on the farm/ranch that they “own” perhaps they could thank the indigenous peoples for their sacrifice in either giving up the land or defended it with their lives, even though they lost the land anyway.
Sorry but this documentary, interesting as it is, needed to tell the whole story, not just the sanitised version shown to the viewers. All nations in some form or another are established through invasion and conquest, but the USA is unique in that it has never, as far as I know, ever stood up and said that they were wrong in the way the land was taken by the settlers. No amount of money can ever be enough to right those wrongs but an admission of wrongdoing and an apology would go a long way to appeasing the indigenous peoples. 😔👎🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
