    Getting those combines through the ravine was a real trick at about 6 minutes in! Glad you videoed that Tracy!

    wow what a fantastic sunset Tracy and yes it did look very good with the combines going down and round and back up the other side to start a new field and lovely to see them birds fly as you cut that little strip and catch you both in the next video

    Tracy, you are more than brave to be going down into that "gorge" -- I would not have been a team member at that point. But then that's why you are and I'm just watching!! And what is it with those Montana sunsets? This one is more than mesmerizing! Thank you for your videos, especially on this run!

    @timgear9892 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    That was quite a coulee to climb into and out of. Did they take loaded grain carts back thru there to fill the semis? Surely they didn't take their semi's in through that path. Thanks for the great video and photography again!
    PS, that food served by the ladies looks superb. Never has seen a simple sandwich, chips, and drink. Always all this other breads, veggies, etc, ... I would work for those folks for their food only!

    • @ZeorianHarvestingTrucking
      @ZeorianHarvestingTrucking  ปีที่แล้ว

      The trucks took the road. We had finished cutting the field on the other side and for quick travel to the next one, we crossed the coulee. No grain was hauled through it.
      We have sandwiches and chips for lunch.

    • @ZeorianHarvestingTrucking

    That crossing reminded me of a field I used to harvest. I was driving a JD 6600 ( telling on my age here.) and had to keep the header low because it was so steep. More steep than this crossing. Fine job Tracy, fine job. Oh by the way, that was a great shot of the Mule deer too.

  • @rightsideofthegrass8114
    @rightsideofthegrass8114 ปีที่แล้ว

    Did the tractors/carts and trucks take a road route to the field, a route that had an obstacle that the header would not fit? I'm assuming the choice was remove headers and trailer them, or to keep them mounted and traverse through the coulee. Is this what happened? Good job navigating the terrain!

    • @ZeorianHarvestingTrucking
      @ZeorianHarvestingTrucking  ปีที่แล้ว

      Trucks took the road. We had just finished cutting the field on the other side of the coulee and this was the shortest route to the next.

  • @allenwalters9068

  • @randyphillips5713
    @randyphillips5713 ปีที่แล้ว

    I used to haul all that farm equipment up in the dakotas and eastern mt and always wondered how they could manage using such big equipment when all I saw was little fields from the interstate. It’s overwhelming how massive the layout. You probably mentioned it earlier in videos but how many acres do they have or are they doing custom harvesting also? Looks like thousands of acres through your camera. Again thanks for sharing your experience with us

    • @ZeorianHarvestingTrucking
      @ZeorianHarvestingTrucking  ปีที่แล้ว

      There are no custom cutters here. Strictly family-owned farm and equipment. There are thousands but I honestly don’t know. If I did, I wouldn’t share that information out of respect for the farmer’s privacy. It’s BIG country!
