We saw tons of you out this weekend for the annual Trailing of the Sheep Festival. In spite of the cold temperatures, it looked like you were having fun – we sure were. We were thrilled to see so many people checking out the wonders of wool and the delicious taste of lamb. Here are a few snapshots from the weekend.

Sunday was the actual trailing of the Sheep parade. There were puppies, adorable Peruvian children and of course, plenty of sheep, wandering the streets of Ketchum.

In spite of some cold weather, the entire weekend was a huge success and we can’t wait for next year’s event.
