Larson’s Lost River Livestock Spring Gelbvieh and Balancer Bulls
Here we have a bull that’s so easy to write about, a true sale feature and a bull that has been a standout since day one. As you can see from his picture, Clearwater N79 is an absolute tank of a bull with a long spine and great structure. His dam has been one of our very best cows, producing a bull that sold in 2023 to Ertel Cattle Co for $8500 and another son to Ledgerwood Gelbvieh in 2024 for $10,000. And N79 is very likely her best son to date. His combination of stoutness, style and EPD strength is going to be hard to match this spring. Top 35% CED, 40% BW, 35% WW, 30% YW, 20% STAY, 30% DOC, 25% MPI, 35% FPI and 35% TPI all come together to make this incredibly balanced bull one of the features of the 2026 sale season.

Another Voyageur son here that can trace his roots back to our elite cows, the E35 donor. She’s the same cow who produced our top selling female in 2024, Rylee K224 selling for $26,000 to Meng Farms Cattle Co. A lot of potent genetics behind this bull and one that is a borderline heifer bull with excellent stability and docility.
Voyageur strikes again with another high growth, high carcass merit, homo black, homo polled purebred Gelbvieh bull. While the Voyageur cattle may be a little lower on their calving ease traits, when used on mature cows, I expect no problems. The calves we’ve had here have been born unassisted to cows and have tremendous vigor at birth. They pop right up even in the coldest conditions with a great hair coat and you can tell right away they’re going to be some of the biggest calves come weaning time.
