Cattle Trail Tale From Blizaard by Willis Johnson

Willis Johnson recounts driving 600 cattle from Vernal to Brown's Park in 1905. He describes a blizzard descent with a four-horse bobsleigh, a chased herd, a near suffocating night by a stove, and cattle misadventure up Diamond Mountain ending with a halt at Diamond Spring ranch. The tale blends Old West grit with harsh mountain weather and frontier logistics.

Wintering Cattle on Hoy Mountain Amid Severe Storms

He stayed a month on Hoy Mountain, faced near-zero odds from veteran colleagues, and returned to Vernal after losing only six head including an old bull. The trek involved pack horse travel, frozen snow, and treacherous 14 inch ice.
