Description:

Bill Yellowtail, Sr, third-generation crow rancher, attends to his cattle on his horse Rusty. Rusty walks over hay that Yellowtail had distributed so his cattle had feed during the winter months. He wears blue jeans, a blue cotton cloth shirt, black down vest, yellow leather work gloves, and a bright yellow NAPA Auto Parts ball cap. The photograph was taken by his son, Bill Yellowtail, Jr, on a late winter or early spring day on the family ranch near the Big Horn Mountains on the Crow reservation.
