Erickson Cattle and Quarter Horses

Erickson Cattle and Quarter Horses Agriculture Ranching has been a way of life for the Erickson Family for generations. The sale will be held October 10, 2021.

In the late 1800's Tim Carlon began running cattle in central California and his heirs continue in that tradition to this day. The cattle are wintered in the Sierra Nevada foothills and then moved to the mountain country each spring for summer grazing. No modern day trucks are involved in the move, instead the cattle are trailed over a span of six days to their final destination in the Sierra Neva

das near Yosemite National Park. Six weeks each fall is spent gathering these cattle, and then the drive back down begins. In 2017, we also began raising horses not only for use on the ranch, but also as performance horses. Some of these horses are offered for sale off the ranch and also at the Biennial Horses With A History Sale in Madera, Ca.

Sale Day was yesterday, and I was so busy that I didn't get any pictures, which I regret! But it was a great sale again this year! We're so thankful to be a part of the Horses With A History Sale.

Our horses performed well yesterday, and we're so proud of them! It's always a group effort, and our whole family deserves the credit for of the time and work they put into the horses. But a special thank you goes to Clayton and Cody Cowden for the fabulous job they did with Fancy, and to Cody for showing them so beautifully in the preview.

Thank you also to the Gill family for all of the hard work behind the scenes to make sale day a huge success and run so smoothly! To David Gill, Joe Murray, and Jim Wheatley, thank you for inviting us to be a part of this sale. And we always want to make a special acknowledgement of Jim Wheatley. He gave us our start in the horse breeding business, and has graciously helped us for years - we're so thankful!

To the buyers and bidders, thank you for coming and supporting all of us! Hope to see you all again in 2027!!
