    ⚡Wow, Brian (hi to Kelly and Hobbs, as well!), you're about to cross that 100,000-subscriber threshold! I've been watching you're channel almost since the beginning and I can't wait to see you mounting that TH-cam 100,000 plaque to the inside of your rig. Come on everyone, let's carry Brian and @AdventureVanMan over the 100,000-sub finish line!

    As a lifelong horse rider and owner I just wanted to thank you Brian, for letting the world know how difficult it can be trying to acclimate a horse to noises and traffic. You live what you say. You're one of the few. Kudos.

    Great moments/great vid Brian! Thunderstorms, and especially hail, is a fairly rare treat to experience in the desert!
    You can hear the urgency in the cowboy's voice. Open range cattle are one step away from a completely wild animals. Speaking from experience, if they get spooked or feel threatened, things can go south pretty fast with them. They did a great job keeping them bunched up going by the happy campers.

  • @leapinlizard9487
    @leapinlizard9487 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Hey Brian, beautiful photography, very nice video of the Superstition Mountains. In most domestic breeds of cattle in the U.S. both the bulls & heifers have horns. There are some breeds that are born hornless (called polled cattle) This breed was Texas Longhorns. They are known for having good rangeability meaning they will forage widely for their food in rough territory like the Superstitions. They can go longer than some breeds without water and their hoofs hold up to the rocky terrain. Warning there is nothing more dangerous than a cow trying to protect her calf from a perceived threat, they will gore you or flat run over you. On range cattle ranchers like to leave the horns on the cattle so they have better protection fighting off predators like coyotes, wolves, bears & mountain lions. Cattle raised in a feedlot or dairy farm environment usually have their horns removed when the calves about 200-250 lbs. This allows the cattle to feed closely together from a linear feed bunk without them putting each others eyes out with a horn. Also hornless cattle are easier to get into a squeeze chute to brand, castrate, give shots or apply ear tags.

    Beautiful Scenery!! Loved the ride to the mountains, the hail storm on the cactus and especially the scene of the mountain during the hail storm, very nice. FYI, when cowboys talk about cattle, they have cows, bulls and steers. I think the ones with big horns might have been steers. Thanks for posting.
