Welcome
to Walkabout Ranch in beautiful Norwood,
Colorado.
Walkabout Ranch is 41.25 acres located
in the North Gurley Reserve of Norwood, Southwest Colorado. Norwood is on Wrights Mesa in San Miguel County,
and about 45 minutes from Telluride and the San Juan Mountains sometimes called the 'Switzerland of America'.
Howard & Jeannie Davis have created Walkabout Ranch from scratch beginning in 2007 and
it remains a continual work in progress. The ranch overlooks the wide open Norwood valley with majestic mountain views
on 2 sides. To the East is the spectacular San Juan and Cimarron mountains. To the West are the impressive La Salle mountains
in Utah.

We produce high quality
Mohair from our flock of Angora Goats and offer Rovings, Locks, and Skirted Fleece. Please see our MOHAIR 4 SALE page
for more details. We only keep does or wethers (neutered males) as these provide
the highest quality fiber, and only sell the finer parts of the clip. The second quality fiber is reserved for
dog bed stuffing and other uses.
Our goats live harmoniously together (or as harmonious as goats can be) with Jack
the Shetland Sheep ram and Kara our Anatolian Shepherd Livestock Guardian Dog, on grass and forage pastures.

Jeannie Nielsen, former owner of The Recycled Lamb yarn store
in Denver has 'retired' to the ranch to raise the finest mohair she can - and has never worked as hard in her life. Her knowledge,
expertise, and experience in the yarn business assures our customers of the best quality product and the finest service
one could hope for. Our fiber is produced on a small scale from hands-on owners who care about their animals and
their well-being. This mohair is now available to you. Please visit our other pages to learn more about Walkabout Ranch and
how you can acquire our mohair.
