Building Corrals & Windbreaks

Lately, we have been building some new corrals and windbreak fences.  We want to at least get the posts in the ground before freeze up.  We can always nail the boards on after the ground is frozen.

On Saturday, we completely finished the corral north of the lambing barn.  It has windbreak on the east side and fence line feeder on the west side.  Our worst winds in the winter come from the east/southeast, unlike when we lived in Alberta where the winter winds came from the north/northwest.  The east winds here usually bring storms and precipitation.

  1. Would love to bring a couple sleds out this winter & look for ‘sheep-killers’. It’s on my bucket list … !!

    Nice corrals!
