Crew-3

Meet Jody Laird who grew up in Oregon on a family ranch. Jody moved to Montana in ’92 and worked for Bear’s Den Outfitters for 17 years wrangling and packing. He takes great pride in his string and packing abilities. Loving the outdoors, he’s grateful to have a job that keeps him there. Jody is married to a wonderful woman and has two beautiful boys, 8 and 3. He’s a dedicated husband and father and is just the same for the people he works for. He loves a good laugh, even if it’s at himself. Every day is a new adventure and what a better way to experience it than on the back of his favorite horse! Full moons, bright stars, a good string, great company, all the beautiful wildlife, and a wolf’s howl or the bugle of a bull elks is what raises the hair on his neck. That’s when he knows he’s right where he’s supposed to be.


Meet our Horses and Mules, which are undoubtably our most important crew members. Without our strong and willing companions, we would not even be able to do this. We are always so proud and their power and sure-footedness, these animals are not just workers to us, they are our pets and companions throughout the year. We love and take superb care of our 4-legged friends, and you will see why.
