This large and heavy wagon wheel can be found at the entrance to the cattle ranch "Conestega", located on TransCanada Highway 2, few kilometers south of the town of Moose Jaw (Saskatchewan) Canada.

The name of the ranch is located on a large board, placed on a wagon near the entrance to the ranch. It was probably inspired by the wagon. Conestega, the name of the ranch, is also the name of a large & heavy horse-draw covered wagon with broad wheels used by American & Canadian pionneers of the 19 century, as they traveled west.
The ranch is owned by Ryan & Pat Gibson.
