The cowboy era shaped how the American West is remembered. Work on a ranch meant long days moving cattle, with a lasso for catching strays and a roundup to gather the herd before branding marked ownership. Practical gear did the job: chaps to guard against brush, spurs to signal a horse, a bandana against dust, and a boot resting in the stirrup. Fenced stock waited in the corral, and the rodeo grew out of those same skills. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
