Did you ever dream of riding where great herds of steers summered in the northern plains in the early twentieth century? One of the biggest steer outfits of them all was the VVV headquartered at Colony, Wyoming, where the present Crago Ranch is located. The Cragos are 4th generation ranchers and it is on this ranch that Harry Longabaugh stole his first horse, his stay in the Sundance, Wyoming jail earned him the name “Sundance Kid”. Cattle still summer here by the thousands. It is said that the Cragos headquarters is the oldest house in Crook County Wyoming.

Cliff and Chris Crago became clinicians in the mid 80’s, traveling for a decade teaching “The Crago Method” of harmonious horse training. They were featured in Western Horseman, Quarter Horse News, Texas Monthly, Country Living and other industry publications. Their son Clay carries on their tradition of harmonious low stress horse training. Clay and Chasity Crago operate the ranch in partnership with Cliff and Chris; their business is a cow-calf enterprise with a large summer herd of yearlings. Calving, doctoring yearlings and maintaining a ranch have always required horsemanship, but the Cragos have taken it to a higher level. Their inspiration has been Ray Hunt, Kevin Stallings, their own father’s Walt Crago and Walt Hoffman along with countless horsemen and women that have been examples to them through the years. You are in good hands with the Cragos, as they will be sharing their cowboy way of life with you during your stay. This is the real deal so come expecting an experience of a lifetime. |
