The 54th Annual Methow Valley Rodeo returns to Winthrop this Labor Day Weekend, continuing a tradition that began in 1971 when local outfitter Claude Miller, who ran Sun Mountain Lodge’s horse program for more than 20 years, and six local horsemen built the first arena on the Sunny M Ranch.
This year, spend the weekend celebrating the valley’s Western roots, then mosey back to The Lodge for:
