Sheep trail past Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge

Twice a year, sheep trail past Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge, as they have for generations. Sheepherders on horseback, their sheep wagon, and their dogs move with the sheep to keep a watchfull eye on them. In the fall they are headed to where they will spend the winter, and in spring they are trailing to the Wyoming Range and the Wind River Mountains for the summer. Trailing sheep requires a large, intact, and relatively undeveloped landscape, which Southwest Wyoming still has.
