About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Western Region awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $78,350 to Good Ronald D, doing business as Sheep Mesa Outfitters, for horsepack services supporting Snow Telemetry (SNOTEL) sites in Wyoming. The contract, awarded on August 1, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2025, involves transportation of personnel and equipment via pack animals to remote, difficult-to-access locations where snow survey operations are conducted. This procurement was not issued under any set-aside designation. The place of performance is Bozeman, Montana.

Sheep Mesa Outfitters is a sole proprietorship that specializes in providing logistics and access solutions to remote wilderness areas through horse packing services. The contractor has maintained an ongoing relationship with the NRCS Western Region, securing multiple purchase order contracts over several years for similar horsepack transport services at various SNOTEL monitoring sites across Wyoming and Montana, including operations at Yellowstone-area peaks. The current modification deobligates excess funds and closes out the contract, concluding the agency's funding obligation under this particular purchase order.
