DEER LODGE — Mule and draft horse aficionados have converged in Deer Lodge for the 30th Big Sky Draft Horse Expo this weekend.
The event, located at the Powell County Fairgrounds, runs through Sunday.
“The Big Sky Draft Horse Expo has been the one and only draft horse show in Montana for the past three decades,” The event’s website state. “The draft horse show provides a family-friendly event that offers education, cultural history, and fun for all ages with a small-town atmosphere. Feel firsthand the immense horsepower of these gentle giants when they pass in front of the grandstand.”
It features competitions, live music, food and more.
Draft horse and mule teams will thunder through the arena in front of the grandstands and teams will race through obstacle courses. Kids can compete in the boot race or ride in a horse-drawn wagon, organizers said.
