CDJ sees four days of the best bronc busting, roping, bulldogging, bull riding and more, with cowboys competing for over $80,000 in final prize money.
With a final tally of 343 contestants, Chief Joseph Days entertained and enthralled hundreds more over its four-day run, and final results were dominated by cowboys and cowgirls from Oregon and Washington.
