While sheep come running down Main Street during the parade, I much enjoyed tracking them down in the wild on their journey to greener pastures. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Loved getting off the beaten path at @trailingofthesheepfestivalin @seeksunvalley! Such a unique cultural celebration right here in the US. ๐Ÿ’—

People from around the country and around the world traveled to Sun Valley last weekend to attend the 29th annual festival โœˆ๏ธ, including events like
๐Ÿ‘ Witnessing 1,000+ sheep parade down Main Street
๐Ÿ‘ Watching a cooking with lamb demo by a local chef
๐Ÿ‘ Tasting lamb bites at local restaurants
๐Ÿ‘ Enjoying cultural performances at the Folklife Fair, featuring Basque, Scottish, and Peruvian dancers, all connected to sheep herding in Idaho.
๐Ÿ‘ Seeing how sheep shearing gets done
๐Ÿ‘ Spectating at the sheep dog championships
๐Ÿ‘ Learning lamb lingo straight from sheep ranchers - Ewe!
๐Ÿ‘ Hearing Sheep Tales and learning about the history of sheep ranching in Idaho
