Also, featured in the female portion of the sale will be three picks of 2019 spring heifers, three picks of fall 2019 heifers and two picks of 2020 heifer calves.

Rounding out the offerings will be three matings featured via three pregnant recipients. While in Denver, the opportunity exists to add additional outstanding individuals from the Hill or Yard shows to the sale.
The Mile High Night sale has proved to be the best breed sale at the NWSS for several years in terms of both attendance and sale averages. The sale’s success is credited to the consignors who consign their best to this sale annually. Catch all the action from Mile High Night live at LiveAuctions.tv.
