In Montana and Wyoming a cowboy's life is harder in winter than in other seasons. During the spring and fall rounds-ups, a cowboy works long hours. The weather is good, however, and he enjoys being out of doors. The sun shines almost every day, and it rarely rains. During July and August there is little work for a cowboy, and he can spend much of his time at rodeos, his favorite form of recreation. In the winter, as in the spring and fall, cowboy also has a lot to do, but severe weather makes his work very difficult. He often works in extreme cold and wind. Even when the weather is bad, he rides his horse continously, watching over his stock and taking care of the weak animals that cannot stand the wind and cold.
