We traveled to Colorado this past year and attended the National Western Stock Show in Denver. While there, we met Val Barnica and Ken Spann, who were competing in the team pull events with their Suffolk Punch horses. After our short interview there, they invited us up to their ranch, The Y Bar Hitch, in Montrose, Colorado, to see their six-hitch team in action at the Gunnison Cattlemen's Days Parade, and to see their beautiful horses up close.
