Ride 'N Tie

Bag om Ride 'N Tie

Clive Mecham's story is one of hard work, long trails, and wild rides in some of the prettiest country in America. His life spanned much of the transition from the Wild West to what we see today. There were only forty-five states when Clive was born, cars were few and far between and electricity was nonexistent for much of his early life. He spent months at a time in a saddle, sleeping under the stars, rounding up cattle or chasing wild horses through the Canyonlands of Southern Utah. Clive epitomizes the Western Cowboy. He played pool with one of the men that helped Butch Cassidy rob his first bank, and at one point, hired Jim Bridger's son to tend camp for him. He not only survived the depression, Clive Mecham thrived, becoming one the predominant ranchers in the Aspen Colorado area. Clive was a big part of the Golden Era of sheep ranching in the west. Upon retirement, his was the last sheep outfit running on government forest land in the greater Aspen area. The life that Clive lived, the people, the livestock, the wild places, are all captured in Clive's autobiography - RIDE N TIE
