My first visit to the park was after the last remaining genetically pure remnants of the Southern Heard of American Bison were donated to the State of Texas and moved from the JA Ranch to the park as the official State of Texas Bison Herd. That was during the days when I was working as a still photographer and I would need to look for some of the photos to show here.

I have decades of memories, tons of photos, and a few videos captured in Palo Duro Canyon State Park. But I don't have the time to go into all of that for now. I will share a few videos for now and expand when I come across old or new material to add.

The XIT Mud Drags were held for two days away from the XIT Rodeo And Reunion grounds in Dalhart, Texas The events drew large and enthusiastic crowds despite the hot weather and blazing sun. The PA system was horrible but I could not get any closer at the time. That's just the breaks I have to deal with when attempting to document live public events with no assistance available.
There are six videos in this series and you can find them all on the Aircraft, Cars, Motorcycles, Tractors & Trucks video playlist. The video above is at the start of the competition and the ones below are from the end.

I would love to document more events like this and I depend on your feedback to find out when and where in the American Heartlands to go! Please Contact Us with your tips and suggestions.

An Antique Tractor Show and Pull were held during the 2019 XIT Rodeo And Reunion on a very hot day! It all started off with a club meeting and then a look at the tractors that came for the show or competition in Dalhart, Texas.

I offer many thanks to Dave Anderson and Miles Childers for granting me access to the historic LX Ranch for Spring Gathering. My first visit was in 2005 and I was working primarily with still photography but getting used to recording video without the help of a tripod in most circumstances.
The video above was the first to be produced and exercise my primitive editing skills from the series. The LX was still hiring Ted to bring his chuck wagon out to feed the hands for two weeks. The camp moved after the first week and I made my appearance as the second camp was being set up. I wish I could have caught the chuck wagon getting rigged up too.
