Cattle Drive

In past years the scheduling did not require the steers for CFD before the typical Sunday morning cattle drive, according to Gamst.

While the cattle drive typically started around 7 a.m. or so on the Sunday before CFD, this year's bucking horse roundup will start around 1 p..m.

The long running CBS TV show 60 Minutes highlighted 11 Wyoming ranches that drive 7,000 cattle for 13 days and travel 60-70 miles.

Almost 200 head of Corriente steers will be driven from a pasture north of Cheyenne along Interstate 25 to Frontier Park.

'The drive begins at approximately 7:30 a.m. at the intersection of I-25 & Horse Creek Road north of the city.

Ranchers work their herds along the river, usually a handful of miles at a time.

The 123rd annual Daddy of 'em All unofficially gets underway Sunday with a cattle drive.
