Kansas is the original Free State, founded to express the principle of equality. Kansas gave the world Dwight D. Eisenhower and Amelia Earhart - quintessential American heroes. When you visit the Sunflower State you'll find out why so many agree Kansas is a place where wide-open spaces let people dream and make big things happen.

Although the rumpled Kansas hills of red clay seem almost deserted in fleeting glances through a car window, they come alive from the saddle of a horse. Trotting along ranch roads, you meld with the environment: A prairie falcon - which would almost certainly be spooked into flight by a passing car - simply glares at you from a fence post as you quietly trot past. Clusters of diminutive wildflowers seem to form an Impressionist painting at your feet. Meadowlarks nesting in the sage and prairie grasses sing warnings to one another as the cyclists pedal past. The saddle of a noble horse provides the perfect spot from which to experience the region's subtle, broad beauty, And that's why ranching in Kasas is a joy not to be missed.
