For the past 100 years “The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth” has provided visitors with a glimpse into ranching. Whether its bronc-riding or calf roping, it’s all tied to life and work on a ranch. To commemorate 100 years of the Calgary Stampede, the Canada Agriculture Museum is displaying some of the tools and cowboy gear from the early days of cattle ranching.
