About Oswald Landscaping & Sprinklers

The same irrigation ditches Oswald Landscaping & Sprinklers keeps running through a Beaverhead County summer go still and rimmed with ice by December, marking property lines under the snow the way green grass marks them in July. This crew knows those lines by feel even when they're buried, which matters when a plow blade needs to stay off a buried sprinkler head or a ditch bank without a guide showing where it is. Dusk comes early over the valley in midwinter, the peaks west of town going gray-blue while the temperature drops with the light, and a driveway cleared before that point holds up far better than one cleared after. Hay meadows on the edges of town gather drift in long, even ridges that the open range doesn't, and clearing a lane through them takes a different pass than a straight in-town driveway. Come the thaw, the same ground goes back to green without a trace of the work that kept it passable.
