Ranch Horses at Sunset Photos

Being that it's Labor Day, we thought we'd pay tribute to the contributions that working horses make to our everyday and vacation lives. The image of riding off into the sunset is iconic for many and can be a reality at U.S. dude ranches and on worldwide riding vacations, because of hardworking ranch horses.

Below are five photos shared with us and by us of good ranch horses at sunset–– a tribute to the gifts that working ranch horses have made to the strength and well-being of our country, our world and our souls!
