Strong, Tough, Smart Horses

The East Humboldt mountains (known as the Little Alps of America) sit in our backyard and rise to over 11,000 feet. This is a great place to raise and train horses. The elevation combined with the rugged terrain develops our young horses’ physically and they learn to handle their feet in rocks and steep country.

Running on the Mountain

Many horses being bred today lack bone structure and are being bred with feet and leg problems. Our horses have excellent feet, legs and bone. That's because of breeding and the importance we place on having them run on the mountain.

Horse Drive

Our new ranch in Clover Valley, Nevada, gives all of our foals, yearlings, and two-year-olds the opportunity to run on the mountain. There is 10,000 acres of rocks, steep inclines, brush, trees, and approximately 2000 feet of elevation change.

Testimonials

We are ranchers in Casper, Wyoming who have purchased 4 horses since 2011 from Memory Ranches Horse Sale. We've been very satisfied with the quality of the horses and the Memory Ranches brand always evokes respect at the team ropings when Roy brings home another trophy saddle. We have the highest regard for the integrity and honesty of the Pearce family and it's truly been a pleasure to consider them friends. We highly recommend the Memory Ranches Horse Sale and the Pearce family business transactions-"their word is their bond".
