Wranglers

Terry Wegener

Terry Wegener has been a professional horse trainer for 30 years specializing in Reining and Working Cowhorse. He is also an approved judge for Reining and Ranch Versatility. Annie, Terry’s wife rides and trains Thunder for the Denver Broncos and both of them are busy at Bronco games and functions. Terry loves riding, teaching and training at VVR. Staff and guests at VVR are always excited to have a clinic and laugh with Terry.

Nicky Throgmartin

Nicky Throgmartin hails from the Hoosier state of Indiana but now calls Vista Verde home. Her love of horses and riding pulled her away from the University of Indianapolis, where she rode on the equestrian team. She has been seeking to continue her equine education by accompanying us to several horse sales and riding clinics. She’s also been assisting professional horse trainer, Terry Wegener, with some of his younger stock and our newborn foals. Whenever you see Chance, her lovable black mutt, you know Nicky can’t be far away.

Reid Morgan

Reid Morgan is not a stranger to guest ranching, after spending a few summers wrangling at Lost Valley Ranch and here at Vista Verde, he’s excited to begin his fourth season as the head wrangler. He calls West Lafayette, Indiana home. Reid graduated from Purdue University with a degree in civil engineering. He will be showcasing his violin, guitar, mandolin and harmonica skills (whew!) this winter during campfire!

Nathan Margason

Nathan Margason comes to us from Elgin, Texas for his fourth season at VVR. This winter he’s excited to get into the corral with the rest of our wranglers and continue his dream of working on a ranch. His love for riding, being active and dancing will make him the perfect fit for Vista Verde.

John Isder

John Isder grew up in Fulda, Minnesota. He loves working and playing in the outdoors and is excited to be joining us for his third season here at the ranch. His adventurous personality, dedication to work hard and his love for serving others makes him the perfect addition to our wrangler crew this winter.
