Western Girls Lasso Herdsmen Ride Into Pendleton

They helm 500 head of horses, 1,500 sheep, and cattle with their father in Umatilla County. Susie earns notice for daring horsemanship including a nine-foot drop while rounding up wild horses. Marcissette is noted for similar skill and artistry in cattle work.
