A2Z Thorson |
Thorson's sire, A2Z Thor, is pictured on the June page of the 1998 calendar. He was also featured in a 1995 edition of the Herald, page 16. His grandma Ylanda was pictured in the Norwegian driving book pulling a wedding coach, and he himself was Libby's International Norwegian Fjord Horse Show's first place ribbon in halter class. He is a beautiful animal! |
A2Z Thorson was FIRST PLACE stallion halter class at the International Fjord Horse Show in 2003 in Libby, MT. |
Bushwhacker Fjords Ranch is a beautiful 154 acre naturally meadowed valley in the Curley Creek Basin on the Montana/Idaho border beneath the Purcell Mountain Range. Our green pastures are dotted with happy Fjord ponies at work & play. We train, drive, pack, ride, & raise quality NFHR registered stock |
We are proud to have acquired a Hostar boy from Caseacres in Oregon. Magnus, a red dun, is out of Capstone's Petra and we feel he has great breeding potential here on our ranch for '05. We are also excited about a colt from Hestehaven, Quildemann, that offers an entirely new bloodline from Norway (via Al) by Bjorklunds Birk, out of Belle. |

Here is a photo, by Mirror K Studio of Libby, of our stallion and his family, featured in the Dec. '02 issue of "The Horse" magazine, page 43. The article addresses the worth of "Keeping a stallion with a foaling mare." |
Gene has built three authentic overland stagecoaches. They are accurate in every detail; oak, leather, even square bolts. They are reinforced, totally able to withstand hard wear. His second coach is presently serving a dude ranch in Oregon. | |
