Christmas Sunset Van Tour

Join us for a festive and educational Christmas Van Tour, where we’ll step back in time to explore the lives of cowboys and their families in the Texas Panhandle during the holiday season.

As we journey through the landscape, you’ll hear how these hardy pioneers survived the harsh winter months, facing challenges like freezing temperatures, isolation, and the ever-present threat of wildfire. Learn about their resourcefulness in securing food, shelter, and warmth during a time when fire danger was always looming.

Hear stories of holiday traditions, camaraderie, and the resilience of these families as they celebrated Christmas on the rugged frontier. This tour is a unique way to experience the spirit of the season while honoring the history and perseverance of those who lived and thrived in one of the most challenging environments in America.
