Description:

Two giant cowboys, 18 feet each to be exact, have been locked in a standoff since 2016. One cowboy points accusingly at the other who shrugs in confusion. Each stands facing each other across Hwy 285, about 300 feet apart. The wooden cutout figures were created by artist, John Cerney. Although you can see their silhouettes quite clearly even from a distance, there is a handy spot at the shoulder to pull over and take a picture.
