The Complete Female Dispersal Sale for the families of Skillestad Ranch Simmental was held at the Glendive Montana Livestock Exchange on Monday October 12, 2009. After decades of dedication to the Simmental breed and the beef industry, the Skillestad family made the decision to dispersal and it was definitely an opportunity for the buying crowd. Females were dispersed across the country to carry on the Skillestad tradition in the industry.
