BUILT FOR COLORADO
The Right Cattle for the Country
Raising cattle in Colorado’s high country means paying attention to more than size or growth alone. Elevation, terrain, weather, and changing seasons all put demands on an animal, so we look closely at health, structure, condition, movement, and how each one performs in the environment where it is being raised.
Altitude by itself doesn’t make better beef. What matters is selecting and managing cattle that are well suited to the country, then watching how they develop over time.
That means making decisions based on the animal in front of us — not simply a number on a chart.
“The right animal isn’t just one that grows. It’s one that fits the environment.”

THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE RANCH
Three Generations. One Way of Life.
Ranching knowledge gets passed along by doing the work. For the Curtis family, that means caring for cattle, teaching the next generation and sharing agricultural knowledge through local 4-H and school activities.
BUYING DIRECT
Ranch-Direct Beef Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated.
If you’ve never purchased beef directly from a ranch, some of the terminology can be confusing. Here’s the basic difference.
Live Weight
The animal’s weight before processing.
Hanging Weight
The weight after initial processing and before final cutting and trimming.
Take-Home Beef
The packaged beef that ultimately goes into your freezer.
Freezer Space
Plan around your order size and the space you actually have available. We’ll help you work through the details.
