Sheep Music
How about a little mid-week sheep music? Watch as sheep rancher and BLM permittee Denis Kowitz takes about 1200 sheep across a 50-year-old wooden bridge. Denis has been crossing the historical bridge for more than 18 years. The bridge hangs 30 feet above the Big Wood River, connecting the Bennett Hills and Timmerman Hills with the Wood River Valley in south central Idaho. Since its construction, it has served as a connector for a major trailing route, allowing sheep to move from lower elevation to higher elevation pastures. Not for horses or the faint of heart, the bridge has been known to swing nearly two feet from side to side while livestock cross it. BLM maintains the bridge to the same standards consistent with footbridges, however, and routinely replaces old sections of wood and tightens the railings. Twelve bands (25,000 sheep) owned by three different operators will cross the bridge during the year.
